My daily stats show I have a small audience outside the USA. I realize that U.S. republican (small 'r') politics may be hard to follow for those steeped in a parliamentary form of government, so here's the abstract: We don't have a 'no confidence' vote process, yet what's being attempted against Trump isn't an impeachment as understood under our Constitution. It's a naked soft coup to oust a duly elected president. The Democrats telegraphed their intentions before Trump was even sworn into office back in January 2017. They thought Hillary would win, and be Obama's third term to 'fundamentally transform America.' They got 'America First' Trump, and Democrats are madder than a wet hornet's nest.
But the President is no more answerable to the Congress, anymore than the Congress is answerable to the President. They are 2 separate, yet co-equal, branches of government. Congress has subpoena powers to investigate, but no powers to prosecute. The Executive has the power prosecute, but cannot interfere with Congress - although Trump is well within his Executive privilege to tell Congress to p!ss off; we ain't playin' your rigged game. The Supreme Court ostensibly is there to settle some disputes between the two, but that body of 9 lawyers in black robes will wisely stay far away from this game. 'The electorate will decide it all in 11 months' is the reasoning. As it should be.
I'm not a big fan of FOX News, but I did find this video by Greg Gutfeld on 'The 5' to be a nice little primer on the ever-evolving, Impeachment follies staged by the Democrats:
