Here is the spiel.When people say they can't find a reason to impeach Trump...
Me: HELLO, BRIBERY? You know just telling the foreign country to reccive aid they have to look into one of their rivial political candiadates and cough up dirt, IS totally not a impeachable. NOT AT ALL. Sigh... feel like humanity is growing more hopeless by the day.
President has presidential immunity. He is not liable for what he does in office by law. Impeachment is a political process to 'offset' that (systems of checks and balances). It (its clause) is written purposefully vague. So many things can fall under it (dependent on you being able to convince the public (via media), that starting the process is proper) - and if something is an impeachable offense - ultimately is only decided by senate. Where dems dont have a 2/3 majority (which they would need).
So the most likely outcome is that he wont be impeached. But reps are fighting back on 'public perception' being the cause he shouldnt - which is pretty much bull. In the end though they will not let him be impeached, get a little reputation damage - and then the next elections will be held.
Most likely.
None of this has to do with if what he did was legal, and some has to do with if it was moral, but really not that much (you couldnt impeach a president against the public revolting, but thats pretty much it.. ). Almost all of it is political.
Politicians at high ranks - for acts they did in office, when they had immunity - dont answer to the law, they answer to political committees.
Its a thing.
