Rick Scott proposes

The Senate just voted to acquit for partisan half-assed bullshit reasons, you don't have a problem with that.
If what they were asked to confirm was partisan, half-assed bullshit, why would they vote to convict?

The Senate didn't start the partisan, half-assed bullshit.

Impeachment is partisan, you don't think the republicans now would investigate tramp do you. They just gave him carte blanche to do anything he darn well wants, even cheat in the election.
 
The Country is too divided. This is no time to be amending the Constitution.
It worked just fine in this shampeachment. Like McConnell said, our Senate provided the necessary firewall to effectively deal with this partisan impeachment!

They sure did.
Ummmm....

How can the Senate start a bullshit impeachment if it originates in the House?

And don't give me that fucking horseshit about the house being impartial. They did the inquiry in privacy without the Republicans being present for 75 motherfucking cock sucking dick licking days. It is a monumental amount of partisanship bullshit that started this process.

And you're not talking to a republican either. Fuck those motherfuckers in their bullshit that they did Bill Clinton.

You're are acting like a partisan shit, just like the Rs.

Rick Scott Announces Constitutional Amendment Raising Impeachment Voting Threshold in the House

"Rick Scott Announces Constitutional Amendment Raising Impeachment Voting Threshold in the House"

Will we have to wait for Pelosi to leave her Speakers seat to get it started?

Will 2/3s of the states, and the needed majority of the House and Senate back it?

If we are to amend the Constitution, then we need to get rid of the term high crimes. It's too vague and too ambiguous. Dershowitz explained high crimes mean those akin to bribery, treason, and misdemeanors. But that was his argument based on his research of our founders. People don't have to adhere to what Dershowitz actually said.

It should also be changed to a statutory crime. Making up crimes like abuse of power and obstruction to use impeachment only gives us what we just experienced.
 
No, the next R house needs to immediately bring impeachment charges on the Ds....whenever they win the white house.
I know that will feel really good, but it furthers the bullshit and draws sympathy.

What we really need is to break up this fake-ass union and go back to a loose confederacy with VERY limited central control.

Well, lol, Im all for secession away from this govt but I don't think thats happening. Im with you though.

Works for me.

Probably. The Dems might want to impeach Trump again. And again.

Will 2/3s of the states, and the needed majority of the House and Senate back it?

One can only hope. Overriding the voters isn't a good idea unless the offense is a lot worse than what both Clinton and Trump did. If the misdeed deserves impeachment and the House can't get the 2/3s vote then those who should have voted for it should and will face the voters in the next election. I'd say we need the legislators to be focused on what WE want rather than what THEY want. There are other ways to deal with miscreants in the WH.
 
The founders were smarter than Rick Scott. Leave it the way it is. It’s logical to make the vote for impeachment lower than the vote to indict.

Frankly I don’t think it’s worth the effort. Constitutional amendments are hard to pass. I’d rather see the effort spent on repealing the 17th amendment which has usurped the voice of state governments at the federal level.
 
The Country is too divided. This is no time to be amending the Constitution.
It worked just fine in this shampeachment. Like McConnell said, our Senate provided the necessary firewall to effectively deal with this partisan impeachment!

But how much time did they waste on this nonsense? How much money did it cost the taxpayers?

Yes, the country is divided, and the divide will widen as time moves on. That's why it's really time to divide this country in half. Conservatives on one side, liberals on the other, and anybody in between will have to choose a side to live on.

435 members of the House.

218 decide to impeach
217 decide not to impeach
Majority party impeaches by dint of a one person majority.

Fair?

So it's not that you dislike partisanship, you just don't like it when Democrats somehow find a way to stick together on something? How are you people going to complain about a rigged process when Trump Barr and McConnell just did it right in our faces?

Our imperfect Union will prevail.

I'm afraid it won't and the writing is on the wall.

They went from Democrats to liberals, from liberals to progressives, from progressives to Democrat Socialism--whatever the hell that is.

So how far are they away from just plain old Socialism, and then Communism?

The Democrat party is not going to stop going more left. If anything, they will go further left. So I say we can at least save half of the country before they destroy it. It's much better than losing the entire country.

Have faith in enough of your fellow Americans!
I did, and do, and it worked out well in 2016.

I don't know about that. Look at what we are talking about now--changing the Constitution, because one side is abusing the power to impeach.

I can't believe it was ever made a simple majority in the first place. That just invites what we just went through. There is always a majority; they even have a majority leader, I think it ought to be at least 2/3rds like the senate to practically insure that it would be a bipartisan mutually agreed effort.

But lets hold off until we can impeach and convict us a few democrats first. And set new records for the speed in which it is done. :dev3:

After all the bitching about Fat Donnie's impeachment, from the fat ass himself, and all the Trumpsters, your true mirror image comes shining thru.
