Abuse of power is a crime
 

Tribe, who advised the House Judiciary Committee on how to draft the articles of impeachment, earlier explained why the articles were “the classic high crimes and misdemeanors.”

He said:

Abuse of power is what the impeachment clause was all about. The idea of using the power of the presidency not to protect the nation but to benefit one’s self and especially one’s reelection. In fact, in the debates around the framing of the Constitution, the big question about the impeachment power was ‘do we really need it, or is it enough, because the president will have to stand for reelection if it’s going to be ahead of him?’ The answer to that was ‘what if he corrupts the election process? What if he uses his power to reframe the election so that he rigs the system? We can’t afford to wait.’ That was the whole reason not to wait for the quadrennial election to take place.

Tribe concluded by claiming that “as a historic matter, this is the clearest case we’ve ever seen in the use of the impeachment power.”

“Especially when you add the second article, which basically says that if the president will not in any way cooperate with the process” then “we really do have a president who is a dictator and if this isn’t impeachable, as many have said, then nothing is. That’s the theory of this case.”

Abuse of this Fishing forum should be a crime.

yeah he’s a dictator. the supreme court has never done anything to keep him in check.

FFS, what kind of dictator has ever allowed the media to talk about him, the way CNN and MSNBC talk about Trump? He’s more of a piñata than a dictator.

Remember to take off the tinfoil hat once in awhile.

It’s not as hard as you think
Nothing will bother Trumplicans till they can’t constrain the next Guy when he does something and says too bad to Congress.
It’s called Regime cleavage and it happened here before and resulted in the civil war.
Hollow democracies where the executive holds too much power are one mark of that, when the Democrats regain power you can be sure that they will be incentivized to keep it using whatever they can to save us from the evil Trumplicans and so on.
But keep thinking the other guy is evil and has bad intentions, notice though it’s never anyone you know well cause they’re not that bad, you just have some differences with them.

You worry about me posting

By 1pm Floridaman had tweeted or retweeted 100 times today.

Hard at work, isn't he

I'd say he's losing it

I wonder about what you post. The notion that he's a dictator, is a joke. But it gets the TDS crowd all riled up, worked into a good frothing fit.

A dictator. Amazing.

Just a joke, huh
