Why is it ridiculous? Because we don't even know the fucking charges yet, that's why!

The reality is going to be bad. Very bad. Very very bad. 100 times worse than Nixon. Impeachment will be the only option. Anything less means that the rule of law has ended.

Plus a thousand times.

It would have to be enough so that the Repub congress critters would also get on board. Otherwise it is just spinning wheels and wasting time. A centure would do as much damage, maybe more, than a failed impeachment attempt. Right? It's put on the record permanently. As the article said, Andrew Jackson tried to get his removed but we still remember it 200 years later.

weigh the evidence is full whether "High Crimes and Misdemeanors have occurred. Then act in accordance with the evidence as our Constitution envisioned. Here is my argument for that position: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100211628929

that these people -- all of them -- are politicians and live in a world of horse-trading: "I'll vote for yours if you vote for mine."

Personally I don' t like it; I could't do it and still look at myself in the mirror. But that's how it goes. For me, all I can hope is that all these new members of Congress manage to do something for the good of the country before they get sucked into the system.

The writer suggests that it would be "an effective form of public shaming," and that might have worked when Andrew Jackson was censured. But we've seen that Trump is completely impervious to shaming. He doesn't understand the concept of shame because he doesn't think he ever does anything wrong. A formal censure by House Democrats would do nothing but stir up another fit of rage-tweeting, and he'd keep doing what he does, without any shame at all.

than indicted? And let's not sanitize mobster activity: money laundering, human trafficking, arms dealing, drug traffic, prostitution, child slavery, etc. Blood money, human suffering world-wide, ongoing as we politely argue how it's more politically feasible to censure someone--a number of someones--caught up and willingly participating in the worst human nature has to offer. For money, for power, for influence over not only Americans but the global community.

Censure. A slap on the wrist.

NO!

That should be enough punishment for Little Donnie!

There is nothing to gain.
