  • 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.
    There's nothing wrong with the dream, my friend, the problem lies with the dreamer.

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

            • 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.
              One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

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

                Trump made history

                  • 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.

                      • So, will Atlanta be burned to the ground (again) tomorrow? They will be officially certifying the Senate runoff election results, and the Dems take over the Senate. ... unless something patriotic stops it from happening.
