[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I knew I wasn't supporting a saint but, I know the candidate I was supporting was the best choice for the America I love. So, shove your only patriots would vote for ABC BS where the sun doesn't shine. Thank you. [/quote]

Did you know he was this much “not a saint”?  Did you hope for better from him?  Or do you think this isn’t such a big deal and the corrupt media and dems are making s**t up?[/quote]

I knew his opponent was "this much not a saint" and so did Democrats. You all put that candidate up anyway! I read Lessig. I heard from Bernie supporters and you still put her up. I supported my America and will continue to do so unapologetically. [/quote]

Ok. Fine. I get that you made the best decision you feel you could have then. How about now?  Hillary is in the rear view mirror. How do you feel about the report and the finding that Trump is more corrupt/corruptible than you presumably imagined when you voted for him?  Do you still support him?[/quote]

DP here: I do support him. I didn't find anything new in the report that I didn't know before the election. I knew he was a businessman and he had prior dealings. If they rise to the level of criminal corruption, he should be prosecuted by DOJ. If DOJ chose not to prosecute him, it is on them. I am more concerned that after spending so much money on this investigation, now we will be spending more money on Congress investigation. It is time to move on.[/quote]
Np- the entire point of the report is to give Congress the means to pursue. Literally the entire point. You shouldn’t be shrugging that off, and you shouldn’t be hoping congresses just “moves on”. The ball is in congresses court to do their jobs.[/quote]

Why? Why do we have DOJ? Why DOJ don't do anything if they have evidence that the crime was committed? Should we fire all those people if they know there were the crime committed, have evidence to prove it and failing to prosecute it?[/quote]

Because they turn it over to Congress to make the decision to impeach. As per the Constitution. It's called separation of powers.  You might want to pick up a copy of the Constitution and start reading it.

Former General Counsel of the Senate Judiciary Committee John Yoo has this response to your question:  "The Constitution itself establishes impeachment, not prosecution, as the answer to a corrupt sitting president. Impeachment does not require the president to commit a crime, but instead refers to significant political mistakes or offenses. As Alexander Hamilton observed, they [b]"are of a nature which may with preculiar propriety be denominated political, as they relate chiefly to injuries done immediately to the society itself.  [t]he Constitution makes Congress alone, not prosecutors, accountable for firing or keeping a president accused of abusing the office."[/b]

The bolded are words too complicated for Trump supporters to understand. We live in an Idiocracay now.[/quote]
