This is all Mickey Mouse horse shite because the democrats are too fricking gutless to make a stand. They need their lackeys in the press to make it alright first.

Hank, you're kind of a dick, but I like that, so I made you a gif:

Odd that Hank doesnt have a response to this (which was shamelessly taken from And McCarthy [whose article I linked]).
I haven't read the article, but will. That was my analysis.

Not sure who this guy is...but either he/she has a crush on me, or wants people to confuse us.
Creepy.

Well I sure as hell won't base it on your analysis.
Sad that Tom Fitton only has a lib arts degree and you are an attorney, and he has twice as much sense in his pinky finger than you do in your pea brain.Posted on 10/6/19 at 7:15 pm to AggieHank86
well if you base it on those dumb arse democrat leaders then you're just as dumb as they are!

The dodo is extinct, by fricktards like you:
quote:
noun: fricktard
1.
a dullard, idiot, simpleton, asswhipe, asshat
Used in a sentence: CelticDog is a fricktard.
Actions based on lies are not legal
Illegal actions, based on said lies, will drive a wedge through this country
Driving a wedge through this country for short-term political/personal gains will get you little in the long run, and will lead to long-term pain.
Your country, and my country, our country, will suffer.

n.
The sudden overthrow of a government by a usually small group of persons in or previously in positions of authority.
It is the first definition listed when I just looked it up. No mention of violence in the definition. This definition sure does seem to fit the circumstances imho.

Attack the messenger to discredit the message. That just doesn't fit my view of a libertarian. Enlighten me as to how this is relevant? I mean, if your general practitioner from Podunk U finds the melonoma that your dermatologist from Johns Hopkins missed, should his findings be ignored?

Seems like many Republican commentators and apologists need a refresher on what a coup actually is. The impeachment process is a Constitutional process and is not a coup.
from Brittanica online
Coup d’état, also called Coup, the sudden, violent overthrow of an existing government by a small group. The chief prerequisite for a coup is control of all or part of the armed forces, the police, and other military elements. Unlike a revolution, which is usually achieved by large numbers of people working for basic social, economic, and political change, a coup is a change in power from the top that merely results in the abrupt replacement of leading government personnel. A coup rarely alters a nation’s fundamental social and economic policies, nor does it significantly redistribute power among competing political groups.

"...a political uprising in which power changes hands or a successful strategic move."
The Dems are attempting it via this Fake Impeachment Inquiry. Not looking great for them.
A coup need not be violent. It can be achieved by whatever means are available. Gaddafi accomplish his coup in Libya with 70 young military officers. They took over the few radio stations in Lybia, and announced that the existing government had fled the country, and that those who hadn't would soon be killed. They fled within hours in response to the Fake News. Gaddafi took over.
Total bluff. But it worked.

House dems have completely abdicated their elected responsibility to do the people's business and are focused on entirely reversing the people's vote and choice. By using whatever means legal or illegal. Setting precedent after precedent as it relates to nefarious and under the table manufactured methods. Some likely to be criminal in nature. With the complicity of a beyond corrupt water carrying, rumor mongering and outright lying group that at one point was known as the press. Which has abdicated their position of calling balls and strikes and have went all in on a bloodless or bloody coup attempt. Whichever the case may be.
The only positive is their old guard institutions have lost the trust of the American people and will never regain it. So there's that.

Accepting your premise, that means that a President cannot break the law when he exercises his constitutional authority (for example, firing a subordinate).
