Every president plays politics. It's a political office.You know what it means.
So no president has played politics with his office ever?
President's shouldn't use the executive power of their office to go after political enemies. Executive power is for the benefit of the nation, not the individual.
That's why it was a problem when Nixon used his executive authority, for instance to fire DoJ employees, to protect his political career from his campaign's involvement with the Plumbers. His use of executive authority wasn't for the benefit of the country. It was for his own individual benefit.
That's why one of the articles of impeachment is abuse of power.
Can you give me an example of a president using executive power in such a way?
Nixon actually committed a crime that could have been prosecuted after he was removed.
What Crime did Trump commit?
Clinton lied under oath, Johnson violated the Tenure of Office act.
Trump was a meanie poo poo head, that's all fucks like you have.
