Robert Mueller Told Congress They Can Prosecute the President. Now It Gets Ugly

Does Congress even have prosecutorial powers?

If Trump is somehow removed from office by Dems and Republicucks there may well be a revolution.

It’s called impeachment. Which is basically the House returning an indictment. In which case the Senate tries the case and he’s acquitted, because conviction requires a 2/3 majority.
If they try this, Trump will win 2020 in a landslide and it will be a bloodbath for House Dems.
ETA: the headline for your link is not only misleading, but borderline retarded. Whoever wrote it should be shunned in journalistic circles for their ignorance, but more likely, will be celebrated.

So the senate will keep him from being impeached?

Congress doesn't prosecute.....

They can vote to impeach, which moves it to the Senate for trial and a vote for removal, which requires 67 votes.
The American people were not happy with Republicans who impeached but failed to remove Clinton. If they attempt to go after Trump because he was mad about being falsely accused you can kiss the Democrats goodbye for the foreseeable future.
Do it Dems, peach fottyFie, peach fottyFie!!

The Dems will lose their asses even worse in 2020 If they do this.
I say, "Go for it."

I wouldn’t put it past the dems to have a vote to impeach.

You have to wonder if any Republicans would vote to impeach in the senate.

No.
Once again...
The House can impeach, which is essentially acting as a grand jury and returning an indictment. The Senate can then opt to try the indictment and if they convict, can remove him from office. Conviction requires a 2/3 majority vote...which will never happen.
BTW, impeachment is a purely political process...meaning that no crime, in the truest sense of the word, is required to have been committed. The House determines what an impeachable offense is.
But, FTR, “impeachment” does not necessarily mean “removal from office”. That’s a common mistake people make. It’s merely the trial process.

The House Bolsheviks could move forward with impeachment,
but removal will never happen in the Senate.
The net result?

When this happens what happens to all the ones who got elected by faking being "moderate"?
Posted on 4/19/19 at 7:00 pm to gthog61
I feel like no one runs as a moderate anymore

We throw our heads back and laugh heartily.
For a long time.
