    And we know you support unfounded and partisan attempt to remove a duly elected President. And what unconstitutional activities? What crime is he accused of Jim?

      Surely you know what the accusations are by now, seer. Yes? And that you believe it is unfounded and partison is irrelevant, it is the responsibility of Congress to determine the validity of the accusations, regardless of what you or I believe.

        No Jim, school - what crime is this impeachment based on, please name it. At least with Clinton there were actual crimes, and I did not support that.

          Is there such a thing as impeachment of an unduly elected president?

          I guess there could be, if the president came to power by illegitimate means; say welcoming interference by a foreign government or with the help of pervasive voter suppression or whatnot.

          Fun mental exercise.

            Man, I just can't remember you demanding US Code from anybody here who was accusing Clinton or Obama of crimes back in the day.

            Weird.

              So Sam, why not have a vote in the house? And interference by a foreign government? Like with the Ukraine and Hillary? Or FusionGPS and the Russia dossier which use Russian sources?

                I was wondering when someone would point out that there have been no Subpoenas sent only requests letters which is all that the democrats can send until there is a vote in the house to hold PUBLIC impeachment hearings.

                        Yes, fair. I was referring to Hillary Clinton and Obama, who folks 'round here fairly routinely accused of crimes without specifying to what they were referring to in US criminal code.

                        To the point about impeachment: don't have to commit a crime to be impeached but the same criticism about past behavior would apply. Being impeached doesn't create a special necessity to dig up USC sections and clauses.

                              In theory, the House could vote to grant subpoena authority to a secret committee, but obviously the Republicans would never go along with that, so until such authority is granted, legally impotent "demand letters" is the best Democrats can do, and the White House will justifiably fight every single one of them.

                                Then they can make up anything up they so choose, thanks for the clarification. Clinton was impeached for actual crimes, and even there I did not support it because he was lying to a court about a sexual relationship. The fact is Sam you can not point to any actual crime. Like I said it is no more than a fishing expedition - and I hope Trump will resist it...
