So when Mueller clears Trump... then where do they turn?

Democrats Warn Trump Congress Will ‘Begin Impeachment Proceedings’ If He Fires Mueller, Rosenstein
quote:
“All Americans, regardless of party, agree on the fundamental principle that no one is above the law,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) told MSNBC Friday. “And if President Trump were to fire Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein, and then [get] special counsel Mueller fired, I believe Congress would begin impeachment proceedings.”
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) echoed Lieu’s sentiments, saying that Congress would come together to make sure they overrule Trump’s authority on the matter.
“Congress will not allow the president to so egregiously overstep his authority,” Schiff said in a statement.

Impeachment proceedings for what charge?

The Repubs should request a special prosecutor for Hillary and the Foundation. They would make this go away, but they are in on it as well.

This is the obvious argument for letting an SC go on. Prosecutorial/political overreach in Whitewater/Lewinski affair ultimately brought down Newt Gingrich instead of Bill Clinton.

Lieu sits on House Judiciary Committee. That's where impeachment action against a President gets serious.

Trump has the authority to fire anyone he wants in the executive branch. These idiots don't know how our government works.

If Trump were a dem, Republicans would have started impeachment hearings based purely on publicly available information, they'd be justified in doing so, and you would be cheering them on.
But if you're so sure Mueller is going to clear Trump, then good, you should have no problem with dems warning Trump not to fire him in a desperate attempt to cover his arse.

I just wish that Congress had likewise worried about the president over stepping his authority for the last 30 years.

Dream on. This is a Hit. Mueller will find probable cause for Obstruction and maybe other stuff. He doesn't need solid facts are a clear legal basis because this is not about facts nor is it about the law. It's about Ousting the Orange Outsider from the Oval Office. No Outsider Reformer is going to be allowed to upset the Trillion Dollar Gravy Train.

It's like they don't realize they don't control the House or the Senate.

As I have said before...
Trump needs to hold a news conference and say while there is nothing to it, he welcomes the SC's inquiry, but if the leaks don't stop, he will fire him.

Wait I thought dems were convinced Trump couldn't fire Mueller?!

‘Begin Impeachment Proceedings’
It would virtually guarantee a 2nd Trump term

the only person on this planet that can initiate impeachment proceedings would be paul ryan. now one would think he would do so with the tacit approval of his caucus or risk being removed by that caucus.
the house is a majoritarian system it's agenda is controlled by the speaker.
the minority party can't even propose legislation with out a majority co-sponsor. so if you see an article with a headline "democrat's propose in the house...." it's nothing more than spank material for libs.
the only person that can initiate a trial in the senate would be mitch mcconnell the dems would need 19 republican senators to join them.
no party has ever impeached a member of it's own party....ever.
