Quite possibly. The problem I have with Trump is how often he lies and how there is no accountability for it.

Just like every other poltician in existence, hence the reason they're in political positions.

While you are thinking about that, consider this: WHY is it legal for any and every holder of any elected office to lie to the Citizens of the United States, but it is illegal for any citizen to lie to Congress, or the FBI, or the Police?
I do believe that any falsehood stated on the floor of the Senate or the House, or during an election campaign, or in or near the White House, by any governmental official; President, Vice President, Cabinet Member, Senator, or Representative, should be grounds for censure or impeachment.
We, the Citizens of the United States, have an absolute right to expect total honesty and truthfulness from our Government. ALL of our government!
The wailing and gnashing of teeth over the foibles of trump with the truth, while accepting the lack of honesty in all the rest of the politicians and law enforcement personnel is absolutely the height of hypocrisy!
Shame on all of you for accepting such a thing.

Bill Clinton wouldn’t stay as President for two terms either. I didn’t have sex with that woman.

Uh, not exactly the same as missile programs, breaking nuclear treaties and the like.

C'mon....you can do better than that. We humans are given the ability to reason. A pat on the back is not the same as running you down purposely with my car.

By any measure, Trump has made more treasonous statements and undermined more of our national security than any POTUS in the last century.

No, saying whether you inhaled or not is not the same as lying and leading us into a war where we spend Trillions of dollars. At some point people must be held accountable....and at more places than the ballot box.

The founders did not put it in the Constitution as a joke.

Remember, Impeachment is not a conviction. It's a trial. The evidence will be weighed.

Trump lied more his first year than Obama did in two terms, also issued many more executive orders

Lying repeatedly is more about a pathology, a sickness, a defect that this president has. That problem is covered under the 25th Amendment - someone who is unable to perform his job. He should not be impeached, he should be retired under the provisions of the 25th.

.
For the second time, Article III Section 3 defines treason:

Quote:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.
So 'treasonous statement' is likely a contradiction in terms. But what statements do you have in mind that would meet the standard of Article III Section 3?
