Who do you tip to win the US presidential election

Impeachment's so nice they did it twice.

Do you actually think about what people write before responding? Your opinion is absurd.

So... are you claiming that their are NO legal scholars that disagree, and think he can still be impeached after he leaves office?
Because there are some that do... Easy enough to find with a google search. But then again, you are famous for simply posting headlines...

[Kidlicious]

No. That's a red herring. I said that you can't remove someone from office that they don't hold and now you act as if that's in question because some experts claim that you can. That's absurd.

[Ming]

You posted a "legal opinion" claiming they can't. And there are "legal opinions" out there claiming they can.
Nothing absurd about it. As evidenced by the fact the House went ahead and impeached him. If it was as absurd or clear cut as you claim, that wouldn't have happened.
Legal experts are mixed on this... and it's absurd to claim that only the ones that support your POV are the correct one.

[Kidlicious]

Trump will not be removed from office. I'm sorry that you are so easily confused about that.

[Ming]

The headline of your story reads... "Former Fourth Circuit Judge: Senate Can’t Hold Impeachment Trial After Trump Leaves Office"
And contrary to your claims, some legal scholars have the opinion they can.
And while he will already be toast at that time, since the Senate (The majority leader) has said they won't hold the Trial until after he does leave office, the purpose of it is to stop him from holding office in the future.
And there are some legal experts who have made the point that even if he is found guilty, that it won't stop him from holding office in the future. And some say they will be able to then hold the second voter required to make it happen. Again, conflicting LEGAL OPINIONS.

It seems like you are the one having a problem understanding what an opinion is.

The framers of the US Constitution, and all the politicians in the US prior to a few years ago, did not anticipate a grifter like Trump becoming POTUS. So many things that Trump has done will have to be tested in court before it is known whether a President can legally do them or not. Trump has, ironically, appointed some very conservative members of the SCOTUS, who will likely take a conservative line if any of these cases of 'Presidential overreach' appear before him. Knowing that their decisions will become a precedent for future cases (and future Presidents), the SCOTUS will likely narrowly define presidential powers and condemn the worst excesses of Trump's behavior.

I suspect 'calling for insurrection', and I've seen plenty of evidence and I'm sure I've only seen a fraction of it, especially when combined with a second impeachment, would be an easy call for either a SCOTUS vote, or a military tribunal.

In case of being impeached after leaving office Donnie should strike back with threatening to pardon himself after leaving office...

You just pile horse**** on top of horse**** and nobody even bothers with it.

You mean like many of your posts...

[BeBMan]

Kid bothered to post that he really doesn't bother.

On impeachment after leaving office - I am told that the impeachments of Sen. William Blount in 1797 and Secretary of War William Belknap in 1876 both occurred after they were no longer in office.

Impeachment's so nice they did it twice.

So much winning ...
never before has a PotUS been impeached so much as Trump ...
and probably never thereafter will.

Trump made history

[BeBMan]

Indeed. The history books will have quite something to say about him. Though probaly not what he had in mind....

[Ming]

Trump's days in the WH are winding down. The question of how he will leave is probably not in question.
He will probably do so with as little class as possible, ignoring the traditional acts that past outgoing presidents have done.
Because for Trump, everything is about him.
