Trump impeachment urged by WSJ editorial board member

[C_Clayton_Jones]

'In a column published late Friday, a member of the Wall Street Journal editorial board claimed it would be "desirable" to subject Donald Trump to a third impeachment to make up for the damage he has done to the U.S. economy with his "ill-founded" trade war.

According to longtime columnist Holman W. Jenkins Jr., Trump's on-again, off-again tariff threats almost makes it appear he wants to be impeached, with Jenkins writing, "A future Trump impeachment seemed all but guaranteed by last Wednesday morning. It seems only slightly less likely now. It may even be desirable to restore America’s standing with creditors and trade partners."
[…]
"No consensus or even significant coalition exists for trying to force into existence a new American 'golden age' with tariffs, which anyway is like asking a chicken to give birth to a lioness. He invented this mission out of his own confused intuition," he accused.

"Nobody in Mr. Trump’s orbit actually shares his belief in the magical efficacy of tariffs because it makes sense only in a world that doesn’t exist, where other countries don’t retaliate," he pointed out before concluding, "The founders never anticipated today’s instantly responsive trillion-dollar financial markets. And yet these markets neatly adumbrate the founders’ scheme of checks and balances, also known as feedback. Mr. Trump, still sane enough to appreciate what’s good for Mr. Trump, listened this week to their feedback."'

Impeachment would also be warranted given Trump’s numerous illegal EOs, his ignoring of the courts, his policies that clearly violate the Constitution, and the fact that Trump is unfit to be president – misdemeanors refer to bad acts and poor conduct by a president, a president who is indeed incompetent, such as Trump.

I’m certain that his tariff policies don’t qualify as “high crimes or misdemeanors.”

What an asshole thing to say.

Unfortunately, these aren't impeachable offenses. And you're not going to get any Republican cucks to sign on for it. So why waste the time and effort? Let him crash and burn the country. Midterms in 18 months.

When the left has nothing, this is the best they can do.
It's the old, "Let's impeach Trump" retreaded.

Even with the wild ride last week,
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.6%, a gain of more than 600 points, while the S&P 500 added 1.8% and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite jumped 2.1%

No, but if he defies the Supreme Court and refuses it’s command to bring the man he snatched off the street and pa ked off to El Salvador back, that WILL BE an I,peaceable offense.

As for Holman Jenkins, he has always skirted the edge of the right wing lunatic fringe.

Trump has already said that he will comply
Not sure what your issue is....wishfull thinking?

This may be the true cost of the ridiculous impeachment attempts of his previous term. If the so-called opposition party had not acted so idiotically, a serious process could be considered at this point, with the insider trading being a key legal point. However, the entire process has been so discredited that one doubts a successful process could be conducted.

Impeachment is useless and ineffective. That just happens to make the American system ineffective.

The fanding fouthers struck down the inheritance of granting the president the powers of a king, but didn't replace those powers with a workable alternative. Hence, a renegade president can't be stopped. The cost of that error by the fathers can be 'democracy'!

Why did the fouthers miss the obvious?

Who could be expected to imagine a mad sociopath at the wheel?
