Looks like I completely misunderstood that word. So it actually means absolutely nothing and just is a fancy thing to say when a president was naughty. So why is everyone talking about impeachment instead of removal of office? That's like constantly talking about going to the movies but never actually talking about the movies. This whole thing is a fucking circus. Which is quite fitting considering the president is a clown. |
Well actually its not a fancy word but you can consider being Impeach as like having a grand jury decide that their is a case worthy to go to trial over. Now its up to the Senate to do their jobs and try the case. As we know, the GOP controls the Senate so the chance of the GOP ruling against Trump is slim UNLESS, there was a silent vote, then things could get very interesting.
What I do not understand by your response is that you believe just because the chance is slim to remove Trump from office, this is a circus. Actually what we get to see is how each side handles this situation. Currently there have been a few GOP members who have come out publicly saying they will work with the President and his lawyers so he doesn't face prosecution. Now if that were to happen in a real court of law, that person would instantly be removed from the proceedings. There are Dems who state they would vote to prosecute before a trial even happen, the same goes for them as well. The thing is, what we should see is the process work the way it suppose to be. That the president goes on trial, evidence, sworn testimony, documents you name it is presented to the court and then a decision is made. If one party or the other decides to not do their job, then they should face the consequences.
Things should become more interesting once things are push to the Senate. We get to see how all the actors perform and then we can see if how the country response afterwards.
