[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about using the election process?[/quote]

You assume the election process isn't already rigged. The senators certainly seem to be unconcerned.[/quote]

And there is a very good reason that the Constitution has [u]several[/u] mechanisms for removing those who have been elected.[/quote]

Several??  Try one which is a vote of a 2/3 majority on the Senate.  Most people in America including myself support an impeachment vote.  We should have an impeachment hearing.  Why not?  It has been called for since day one.  Get on with one it already.  If Trump is guilty of more than just simply what was on the transcript of a phone call then he should be removed if it meets the approval of 2/3 of the Senate.  Right now, there is not enough yet to convince the super majority and remove from office.  There are many reasons not to support Trump.  I feel a vote or election would be the proper way to decide.  Impeaching and failing to convict in the senate would not be good for any of us and would tip the scales toward his re-election.   [/quote]

“Guilty of more than just simply what was on the transcript of the call?”  When did that become the new goalpost?   Do you think what we saw on the transcript was ok?

If the Democrats come to electoral harm for pursuing impeachment, so be it. It is the only possible response in a country of laws. [/quote]

I actually would like to see Trump impeached.  However, what is the basis of this impeachment?  We keep waiting for a "smoking gun" a "whistleblower" it does not matter what you or I or the people on this board think.  What will convince the Senate?  I do not like the idea of impeachment AND removal being used as a tool to remove a very bad president.  That is what the election process is for.  I do not think he will be removed from office and I think it will help him in the election.  NOT A GOOD outcome.  [/quote]

Your bias is showing.[/quote]

Whatever you think my bias may or may not be is irrelevant to the post.  The most important question should be does an impeachment in the house sent to the Senate lead to Trump's removal?  If it does not, what next.  Is that good or bad for democrats.  I am neither a Trump supporter or Republican.  I am a realist.  My bias or your perception of it does nothing to change alter the question.[/quote]
