I don't agree with your post, and ironically, neither do you.

Not even touching your posts but just the theads you started and I'm stopping about 1/2 way through.

Apologies if you moved around all of these states and several others at the time you were posting.

Florida,
Florida's Stand Your Ground Law


Then apparently Mississippi (this one was a classic since it turned out to be their own church member and not a Trump supporter)

Mississippi church burned, vandalized with 'Vote Trump' Graffiti Sprayed on wall

Then there is New Jersey,

Utah,

Actually, 60 is the number to avoid a filibuster. The vote needed to convict in a Senate trial is 2/3 of the members present (after having satisfied having a quorum), which would generally be 67...as almost every sane Senator would not want to face constituents in the next election having not shown up for that vote. All of which bolsters your conclusion even more.

Actually, it takes 2/3 of the members present, which is normally 67, but it doesn't have to be. One hundred members don't have to be present, just a quorum...the number needed to do business...a simple majority.

Since Roe v. Wade legalized abortion 45 years ago, I read over 50,000,000 babies have been aborted. Because many Democrats are for abortion, the "unborn generations" comment might have some irony to it.

Well with Manafort cooperating with Mueller, Flynn cooperating, Gates cooperating, "Vinny" the fixer trying to play lets make a deal, Richard Pinedo pleading guilty to selling stolen identities to Russian's and cooperating with Mueller, and Sam Patten cooperating with Mueller, I think Al Green is the least of Trump's problems. Green is just pandering to his base like the rest of them do. The news today about Manafort's flip is devastating. He was at the Trump tower meeting with Don Jr. I almost forgot about Trump's CFO and financial gate keeper Weisselberg asking for immunity to cooperate with Mueller. I think it's more and more likely that Trump will resign to keep Don Jr. out of jail. Lets not forget about the SDNY looking into the Trump organization. I just read an article "The Trump Organization is SOOOOOOOO F.............Sorry I couldn't resist, but it does echo the other reporting about the SDNY looking into the Trump organization and possible RICO charges. Weisselberg has the information Mueller needs to indict Trump's children on unpardonable state charges. If you were faced with lets make a deal to keep your kids out of jail, would you resign? My guess is Trump will slink out of the white house hat in hand and his whipped tail between his disgraced legs.

you realize that so far none of that is connected to Trump and even if one of them suddenly makes a claim that Trump did this or that that doesn't automatically mean being charged, or an impeachment and removal right?

I'm sure that you secretly realize how silly your remark is. Of course future generations will be here. But they'll be the wanted children, not the unloved, unwanted children. You probably also realize that "abortion on demand" is a deliberately inflammatory phrase.

And he's apparently right that a president can be impeached without having committed an actual crime.

Um, and we have to live in TX to offer an opinion on the likes of Al Green.....because?

Someone needs to learn how government works.
