His constituents should decide. LakeArenal Aug 2021 #14

How can his constituents decide if he should resign? tritsofme Aug 2021 #17

My answer was no. LakeArenal Aug 2021 #25

His constituents are represented by legislators. Those legislators can impeach him Jose Garcia Aug 2021 #40

If he doesn't resign he will be impeached. Every NY federal Dem, plus Biden, etc Celerity Aug 2021 #79

Disagree Meowmee Aug 2021 #95

you are now sliding the goalposts. Impeachment is a political move, not a legal move. Celerity Aug 2021 #99

I am not sliding anything I responded to two of your points Meowmee Aug 2021 #100

You are now demanding that he be tried and convicted in a court of law before he needs to go. Celerity Aug 2021 #102

No not demanding anything Meowmee Aug 2021 #106

I disagree with you completely. Biden, Pelosi, 100% of the NY congressional delegation, etc. all Celerity Aug 2021 #107

And I disagree with you so so many points, Meowmee Aug 2021 #111
