    And you're not partisan ? Hmmm
    I actually think Trump broke the law regarding those poor kids with Trump U.

    But alas, our justice system failed long ago, and the Left would rather make up fanciful stories about Russian collusion instead.

    Very telling.

    How is it "drastic"? A motion of no confidence is a natural remedy against politicians who, for whatever reason, are deemed no longer fit for office. In 1995, Deputy Prime Minister Sahlin of Sweden was forced to resign after it was revealed that she claimed certain personal expenses (to the extent of several thousand dollars) as work-related expenses, and she failed to pay parking tickets on time. The scandal was later dubbed the "Toblerone affair."
    Impeachment and removal in the US is not comparable to no confidence votes in parliamentary systems. The Constitution provides that it should only be done in cases of Treason, Bribery and other High Crimes and Misdemeanors. While the meaning of the last phrase is still debated, most scholars agree that it covers serious misconduct amounting to gross malfeasance and/or misfeasance not mere dissatisfaction with a President's job performance.

    In 230 years, impeachment and removal have never been completed.

    I'll wait to read the report rather than jumping to conclusions based on nothing more than AG Barr's interpretation.
    I have good news and bad news. The good news is AG Barr is pushing for full public disclosure of the report.๐Ÿ‘

    The bad news is AG Barr (along with other Republican leaders) are pushing for full public disclosure of the report. ๐Ÿ˜จ

    Considering that he failed to miss the obvious collusion with Russia, can we suspect Mueller of being a Putin spy?
    This is one of the more stupid things you've said in this forum, and that's saying something.

    Warning: it's a Fox news thingy so... listen or don't listen, depending on your political affiliation... because, you know, it could make someone's head explode if they're already unhinged and... and stuff like that.

    They are comparable - the difference is just that American politicians are rarely held to account except at the ballot box (and, given the number of safe seats, often not even there).

    You think Trump is a criminal, but you are fine with a criminal in office?

    It is easy to prove coincidence but hard to prove intent. Only a churl would think Mueller was in cahoots with Putin.
