Exploiting The Capitol Riot To Kill Trump
' Donald Trump has stumbled and fallen, and the establishment is not going to let slip this last opportunity to stomp him and his movement to death.
On Sunday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a startling ultimatum:
Either Vice President Mike Pence and the Trump Cabinet invoke the 25th Amendment, declare the president “unfit” for office, and remove him within 24 hours, or House Democrats will vote to impeach him again.
As the Senate, which would have to hear the case and hold the trial, does not meet again until Jan. 19, the day before Joe Biden is inaugurated, what is going on here? It sounds absurd, like rushing to hang a man who is going to die the next day.
But such is the blind hatred of Pelosi’s House for Donald Trump.
“House Democrats want veto power over whom Republicans can nominate.”
Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina suggests holding off sending a bill of impeachment to the Senate for 100 days, to give Biden a chance to get his appointees confirmed, and then indict and convict Trump of sedition when he is a private citizen.
What would be the purpose of impeaching a president who hasn’t been president for three months?
Answer: A conviction would strip Republicans of the right to reelect the man who got the largest number of votes in their party’s history.
House Democrats want veto power over whom Republicans can nominate. And this is the crowd that does not cease to bray about its devotion to “democracy.”.............'

Isn't that a fake news headline? A bit misleading, surely? Or just poetic licence on your part?
I think the reading of the situation would be different if The UK government were to pursue a criminal over here. The headline might then read "Exploiting The Law To Kill accused person", and you'd surely agree that it would be misleading.

Biden is right- now is the opportunity to move on from Trump and concentrate on what unites rather than what divides the nation. I don't understand your question, Atheist. Democrats with their political manouverings will do what they wish; but impeaching an ex-President is pointless and will not work towards healing the division.
Thanks Atheist- yes- impeaching Trump (again) only gives him more publicity, does not remove him from power (The election did that) and whatever the outcome would be seen purely as a divisive, political act of bitterness. Biden is right to seek a period of calm and get the country to unite on American values. The time for prosecuting Trump will surely come- but the impeachment would be counter-productive now and only encourage the anarchists even more.
