How about it. Impeach Clinton, and Obama. They need to go before Trump. No doubt about it.

Trump was impeached while president twice.

Some don't understand the concept that Trump was impeached while still in office. Trump likes first. Going through a Senate trial while no longer in office.
 
Why did you make two threads asking the same stupid question? Dementia setting in?

As has been explained to you several hundred times, Trump was impeached(twice) while in office. Why do you need to continue lying about this?
 
If you want to impeach Clinton or Obama for things that happened years ago next time the Republicans have power, go for it. Neither are ever going to run for office again and it would just be another example of why the Republicans shouldn't be taken seriously as a governing party.
 
"I didnt know you could impeach former president."

You can't. Trump wasn't. Please add this to the list of things you don't know.
 
A former president probably cannot be impeached. We might find out if a president that was impeached (while they were president) can be convicted, if enough of the awful Republican senators vote to convict. If they are that big of rectums, then we may never know. If the perp is convicted, it'll likely end up in the rammed and packed far-right Supreme Court.

Go down with the T****tanic, Republican _________!
 
Impeach Clinton, and Obama

Clinton was impeached and should have been convicted by the Senate.
Obama may have been an ineffective President but that is nothing to impeach over.
 
It will not pass Constitutional muster

There is existing precedent. Numerous constitutional scholars agree that following through with the Senate trial is constitutional.

Not even SCOTUS will interfere, even if they could, but they can’t.

Good. It will get rid of RINO's with McConnell being first to go

Lets tell the truth. The nasty rotten old witch Pelosi has sent impeachment twice. So far he has NOT BEEN IMPEACHED.

Trump's 2nd impeachment started while he was still in office. Once he leaves office a new impeachment trial cannot happen.

Impeachment in the United States is the process by which a legislature (usually in the form of the lower house) brings charges against a civil officer of government for crimes alleged to have been committed, analogous to the bringing of an indictment by a grand jury.

Trump has been impeached twice. This has been explained to you hundreds of times. You can stick your fingers in your ears and cry "nya nya nya Pelosi is a meany", but it will not change the facts.

Yes he has. Twice in fact. He has yet to be convicted.

Its the presidential equivalent of being indicted and not convicted in a trial.
 
There is nothing going to come from this Impeachment trial in the Senate. The Constitution says “[w]hen the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside” — but Trump will not be “the President” during the upcoming trial. If Roberts refuses to preside at upcoming Senate trial as beyond his constitutional authority as he should that will render the “impeachment” trial not an “impeachment” trial at all.

Point of information ONLY.

In fact Mr. Trump was Impeached. That is simply the part the House of Representatives has in attempting to remove a government official from office.

However, Mr. Trump has yet to be TRIED and found guilty. That is the second part of the process for removal of a government official from office.

Many people don't realize that an Impeachment is merely an accusation, or a charge if you will. Much like in criminal courts, where a person is charged with a crime, but it is up to a trial to determine guilt. It does not mean the person accused is factually guilty.

The Senate will either conduct a trial, or rule that since Mr. Trump is no longer in office, they do not have jurisdiction to try him any longer.

Absolutely, we should definitely impeach George Washington. This is a good use of time.
