Stealing a candy bar from a convenience store is a misdemeanor. So all a president has to do is steal a candy bar from a convenience store, and he has committed an impeachable offense.

This is worse than stealing a candy bar from a convenience store.
stealing a candy bar would NOT be classified as a high misdemeanor.... smh

One man's wild accusations are another man's proof. Your side could hear Trump himself come out and say "Yeah, I did all those things", and you would excuse it by saying " Well, everyone makes mistakes !"

Face it, you could have a smoking gun and still never want to admit he did anything wrong.

Trump thinks he has dictatorial powers and can do whatever he wants. The feckless Republicans in congress are content to let him continue on this destructive path for the nation.

As if the Ds wouldn’t attack Pence the moment after he was sworn in. This impeachment charade is not fooling the voters, so keep stamping your feet. See how much that helps in November.

Oh indeed. Trump could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue and the diehard lemmings would not consider that an impeachable offense either.

Trump could gun down a nun in Lafayette Square in front of a hundred witnesses and his supporters would say Hilary did it.

You are of course referring to the Barack Hussein Obama administration, correct? He was the first half black president with six names and taxi cab ears.

This is not rocket science.

Yet they did fulfill their statutory obligations given that the funds did arrive in full before September 30th


Also, the "findings" of the GAO are irrelevant given that they are not an authority when it comes to interpreting the law.

You best believe if Democrats had evidence that Trump stole a candy bar they'd use that as the basis for an article of impeachment....and it would be their strongest article of impeachment yet.
