The funny thing is, the left would be screaming the rafters down if the party of the president were reversed. Here is hoping that the left remembers all that has gone on since the election cycle to now, and don't clutch pearls, and wring hands when and if there are violent attacks against supporters of whomever emerges from the 2020 DNC Coronation. Or, if the subject of the next DNC Coronation should be elected, there are immediate calls for their ouster, screams of illegitimacy, and a national press that spends 90% of the news cycle attacking them. I mean, it won't happen, because that isn't what Conservatives are about, but can you imagine the contortionist skills required in lefties flipping from the attack to the defense?

For what specific crime did he commit?

Is it healthy to have such a frenzied hunt for evidence that has led to so much fake news and fake evidence against him, which prevents him from governing well?

Should we just allow a continual stream of fake news impeach public officials.

Name one crime you can factually prove he committed in this Russian scandal.



Wait for actual evidence unless you want to start a bad precedent.

No. Minority income went south under Obama's 8 years. Many are worse of today than when Obama took office. Yellen's quantitative easing has inflated our currency and this harms many people long term.

You do realize impeachment is a political process and nobody goes to jail or prison due to impeachment. Heck Clinton was impeached and he's happy as could be.

I don't expect Trump to do anything that's responsible.

At least for anyone but himself. And even then, over half the things he's done all his life have damaged himself in some way or other.

The CIA asked if they should stop handing weapons and munition out to insurgents, we know Hillary told them to continue. This makes her culpable in the crime of genocide. Yet nobody discusses it much. The validity of the emails wikileaks publishes is beyond question due to the validity code attached to each one. Why has no prosecutor from the Hague asked to discuss this with Hillary?


Clinton Emails on Libya Expose The Lie of 'Humanitarian Intervention' | HuffPost

Quote:
Meanwhile, the emails actually demonstrate a complete lack of concern for humanitarian violations by the pro-NATO rebels. Thus, in but another email to Hillary, dated March 27, 2011 (C057824501), Blumenthal explains, “[s]peaking in strict confidence, one rebel commander stated that his troops continue to summarily execute all foreign mercenaries in the fighting.” Now, summarily executing even armed combatants is a clear violation of the Geneva Conventions, but neither Blumenthal nor Hillary demonstrate much concern about such trifles.

Even more concerning, it became known during the course of the NATO invasion that the claims of foreign mercenaries fighting for Qaddafi were false; that, in fact, the alleged foreign mercenaries were really African guest workers. What was really happening was that the rebels were summarily arresting and murdering people who happened to be black, and doing so in very large numbers. In other words, it was the U.S.’s rebel friends who were actually carrying out genocide in Libya, and NATO, which had a UN mandate to protect civilians in Libya, was aiding and abetting them in doing it.
Note the above is from Huff Po.

This is what Tawergha looked like after Hillary allowed this city to be cleansed of blacks -

Don't confuse the left with facts and reality. Most of them don't even know Clinton was impeached. This is all pure emotion and revenge. Revenge because Trump defeated their heir to throne HRC and they cannot let that go.
