Why should Joe Biden or any other Democratic President for the rest of American history ever follow the law?

Why should Democrats ever hold a Democratic President accountable if he does not?

If you cannot impeach and convict a President for Inciting insurrection, soliciting election fraud, sedition, treason, extortion, or any of the 10 other felonies that over 1000 federal prosecutors itemized in their letter on the Mueller investigation...

If you can't impeach for these reasons what can you?

Why have impeachment at all?

Don't ask yourself what you want Trump to get away with Republicans, ask yourself what your willing to let Joe Biden get away with.

Give us a reason why Biden shouldn't just have McConnell and Rand Paul assassinated? All he needs is 41 Democrats in the Senate and he can't be removed. Kentucky has a Democratic Governor who could appoint Democrats to replace them.
Before Biden leaves office he just pardons himself or resigns and has Harris do it for him. If you get to let your President run amuck I don't see why we can't.
 
Don't forget, no one has to ever worry about lying to investigators to protect the president. The president will just pardon you if you keep your mouth shut.
 
Trump has set back democracy .

This cannot be denied.

I don't know how to correct all that TRump did.

Trump is in rare company as being a one term Prez.

Rep also lost two senate seats that vegas would had as long shots in Georgia. Trumps antics are costing is party. For at 2 years Dems have full control of Govt
 
We need to get back to something approaching normal if we want the dollar to hold up. If that isn't enough of a reason, then one needs to work on his or her imagination.

Don’t say stupid shit. We’re a nation of laws. Just because some fools stopped following them doesn’t mean the rest of us should.

And he was impeached. Argument dismissed.

I don't think he told the rioters to go attack the capitol building; the impeachable offenses are his intentional spreading of false claims that the election was fraudulent (which directly and foreseeably led to the violence at the Capitol), and his attempt to threaten the Georgia of Secretary of State (and likely others) into falsifying election results or otherwise overturning a legitimate election. Both of the latter are encompassed within these articles of impeachment.

No other president in American history has done anything remotely similar and it cannot be allowed to ever happen again.

Impeached is not removed.

Laws only work if we all have to follow them. If half the country decides the laws don't apply to them then there's no basis for the rest of us to follow them either.

Trump did enough damage. The last thing we need to do now is throw away the last tatters of our republic.

And Republicans have 6 out of 9 Justices on the Supreme Court.

Two years of total control ain't shit when you have a filibuster blocking any meaningful change.
We saw back in 2009 Democrats had a supermajority thanks to the disaster the last idiot Republican left behind. Sadly the American people showed us that they have very short memory spans.

Which is why he must go to prison where he belongs to ensure that doesn't happen.
 
While I want the democrats to grow a tougher spine and fight back, I do not want to see the Democrats lower themselves all the way down to the level of the traitorous Trump bastards.

Criminals commit crimes. That does not mean we everyone should. Nevermind that you have nothing to stand on to complain about Trumpist behavior if you yourself advocate that very same behavior to be used against the Trumpists.



This thread does not advocate throwing the baby out with the bathwater. It advocates blowing the house containing the baby.

No impeachment isn’t removal which won’t happen given the timeframe. Nor is conviction guaranteed though he should be convicted. So what? Impeachment is political not criminal. The point is to remove a threat not punish someone for breaking the law.

What half has said the laws don’t apply? I figure there were a couple thousand insurrectionists on the Capitol grounds. That’s not half.

Liberals tend to have principals, unlike the deplorables who have shown that they do not.
 
The thing about saying his false claims about the election are crimes or impeachable, is that it's criminalizing opinion, and that's a dangerous precedent. If you can criminalize his false opinion, he can criminalize your correct opinion.
