He is going to branch off and create his own party like the PPC did here in Canada. He will say they are the true Republicans. You watch.
Not if he is impeached again, he cannot run for president, no matter what party.

Not necessarily. The key with Impeachment is the conviction part. He was impeached the first time but not convicted by the trial in the Senate. He probably will be impeached again but it won't go to the senate for a conviction trial as there is not enough time. Even if there was time and he was convicted in the Senate then Congress has the ability not to disqualify him but I assume that wouldn't happen.

WASHINGTON — QUESTION:
If President Donald Trump is removed by the 25th Amendment or an impeachment hearing, would he be able to run again in 2024?
ANSWER:
If removed by 25th Amendment: Yes, He can run again. When removed through the 25th Amendment, a president is not disqualified from running yet again.

If removed by an impeachment conviction: It depends. When impeaching someone, Congress does have the constitutional authority to disqualify that person from future office. However, there have been occasions when Congress has decided not to disqualify someone from future office.

I believe that your interpretation is wrong. He was charged, convicted AND impeached by Congress. The Senate voted to not remove him from office. It does not necessarily require that an actual law was broken. It is the sole right of Congress to decide what impropriety is considered impeachable.

The one thing I’ve noticed is the age of the BLM protesters are younger, 20s/30s...the Capital protesters are older, 40s/50s/60s...not sure what to think of it.

I guess...that’s about the age where delayed mental illness starts to take affect, and all the Acid they took in the 70s and 80s take their toll.

I think your interpretation might be wrong because the word conviction does not happen until it is sent to the Senate for trial. Also Congress is the term for both the house of rep and the senate. He was impeached in the house and went to trial in the Senate. I know that it is nitpicking but thought you would appreciate it.



Article One of the United States Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power of impeachment and the Senate the sole power to try impeachments of officers of the U.S. federal government. (Various state constitutions include similar measures, allowing the state legislature to impeach the governor or other officials of the state government.) In the United States, impeachment is only the first of two stages, and conviction during the second stage requires "the concurrence of two thirds of the members present".[34] Impeachment does not necessarily result in removal from office; it is only a legal statement of charges, parallel to an indictment in criminal law. An official who is impeached faces a second legislative vote (whether by the same body or another), which determines conviction, or failure to convict, on the charges embodied by the impeachment. Most constitutions require a supermajority to convict. Even if the subject of the charge is criminal action, it does not constitute a criminal trial; the only question under consideration is the removal of the individual from office, and the possibilities of a subsequent vote preventing the removed official from ever again holding political office in the jurisdiction where they were removed.

This narrative we are witnessing is actually another, recently discovered, manuscript by Ian Fleming... he entitled it, "The most powerful man in the world goes Bananas."

Brought to you in Real.VirtualReality 1.0... this is the first Beta test of the next stage in the evolution of cybercommunications...

Not to fret... James will come along very soon!

Here in this video we see these Anarchists even stealing souvenirs from inside The Capitol Hill. They also confronted the police inside the building:

Anarchist willing to follow a would-be fascist dictator? They can be called many things (rioters, vandals, looters and so on) but "anarchists" isn't one of them...

Absolutely true. Pence's role was purely symbolic and he did not have the power the either void the election or delay the Approval of The Biden Harris Presidency for further investigations. The Supreme Court purely spelled the fact that the Elections were perfectly legitimate in all aspects for all to see. Trump feeding fuel to the fire is treasonous and it should call for an investigation once he is out of office!!
Why wait, it's all there now. Miles and miles of video footage, almost numberless tweets, retweets and other social media posts. What needs to be investigated???

Yes you are correct. I was just coming to delete my post when I read an article and it mentioned the senate convicting. But since you already quoted me....
