re: Trump’s Boldest Argument Yet: Immunity From Prosecution for Assassinations

quote:

---

Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

That the statement specifically mentions IF the person is convicted(impeached) THEN they are "subject to indictment" in a criminal court would imply the opposite is true if not convicted(impeached).

Or...... maybe the founding fathers assumed that if a person was not impeached successfully no reasonable person would attempt to indict for the same charges for which they had already faced during impeachment and not convicted of.
These corrupt fricking Democrats can't even spell reasonable.
