Donald J. Trump is an Impeached President
-
This is one of the reasons for low participation in this part of the forum. Under a different topic recently, a member stated that Trump was impeached unconstitutionally. That is completely inaccurate and is misinformation. Had a group of congressmen and congresswomen come together and took a vote of fifteen and deemed the president impeached, that would be unconstitutional. Had Speaker Pelosi simply deemed the president impeached without taking a single vote, that would be unconstitutional.
Spending months investigating whether or not the president abused his power, hearing sworn testimony by those involved directly or indirectly with the situation, and then deciding to draft articles of impeachment is NOT unconstitutional. The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power of impeaching a president and gives the Senate the sole power of convicting or acquitting the president of his impeachment.
It's absolutely hilarious that people of the far-right in this country argue for limited interpretation of the Constitution but decided to change that view when it comes to this. It is not unconstitutional for the House to impeach a president after an inquiry, it is their constitutional duty.
Lastly, let's remember what exactly happened during the inquiry. We had multiple people sworn under oath testifying that the president abused his power and the president refused to defend himself under oath. So, we ended up in a situation where people under oath with the threat of perjury over their heads gave testimonies and a proven liar president refused to defend himself against their testimonies under oath. Using deductive logic, he's guilty of abusing his powers. If he was truly innocent, he would have proven it with records and sworn testimony that those who testified were lying. The Senate–-especially senators from North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Colorado, and Maine---will have to answer for their actions in November.

Wait, lies by Democrats is the reason for low participation in this section?
There was no due process in the impeachment hearings. It was a 1 sided political Schiff show, that started on election day.
Compare the impeachment of Bill Clinton and Trump, and you will see what I mean. Yeah, I know liberals are too stupid to see the glaring differences between the 2 cases.
Pelosi admitted that the impeachment had been in the works since day 1. Nadler, Al Green, Schiff and countless others said that Trump had to be impeached so he couldn't be re-elected.
Oh, I'm still waiting for all that absolute proof Democrats and MSM claimed there was of Trump/Russia collusion.
OH NO!!! I see the loving and tolerant liberals getting their bike locks of peace out.

I am sorry but it had to be pointed out. I'm tired of people making statements that contradict what is actually in the Constitution. I take the Constitution very seriously since it is the document that holds the amendment (13th) that keeps white people from enslaving people like me in this country again. With that amendment in place, the government itself cannot try to bring it back. Some supporters of Trump can try to bring back slavery but because of another amendment (2nd), people like me have the right to own guns and put an end to that the moment it starts (gun ownership among black Americans has increased dramatically since 2017 btw). Back to my point, Trump was impeached constitutionally and anyone arguing against that is participating in the spreading of misinformation and conspiracy theories.
This president refused to defend himself under oath and provide evidence contradicting what was being said by those who did testify under oath. There is no other way to look at this factually.

The histrionics of liberals.
I look forward to seeing political impeachments taking down Democrats, just because.
"Contempt of Congress" was solely based on Trump using the courts to settle disputes between the Exec and Congress, as per the constitution you idiots claim to love. As pointed out in the Senate trial, every President has done it many times, with St Barry doing it the most since Johnson.
