Should impeachment start now regardless of who wins today?

Is automatic impeachment the only way to reform the primary process that produced Trump/Clinton?

    Aren't you that paid political antagonist?  Or was that Heather?  Or was that both of you?  Nah, I have to be wrong because no one would pay for this stuff.

    I'm sorry.  I hope I am wrong.  Let's see how mean you get and I'll tell you.  If you are not  mean I will never be mean either.

  • It might be the only way on this occasion,
    but it would be exceptionally costly if it had to be repeated at every election,
    and it would slow down the processes of government.

    Reform would have to be much more radical than relying on existing law.

    Sure, let's make our government even more dysfunctional and sclerotic than it already is. That will solve....um, what exactly?

    If you have complaints about the process which produced the current situation, you should address the basic issues which include:

    A) The overwhelming power of money in our political system, thanks to SCOTUS decisions like Buckley v. Valeo and Citizens United vs. FEC.

    B) The conversion of our news media to profit-making ventures which prize spectacle (because it makes money) over actual journalism (which doesn't make money and threatens the Power That Be).

    Impeaching a President because of...REASONS! doesn't address either of those fundamental problems.

    I am proud FOR you.  LOL  That is, I think I am proud for you if it is a complement to you, then I am.  I am not sure entirely.

    Bacon and egg and pig?  That would mean that you would  be a cannibal.  I got that part.  So maybe I am insulting you.  HELLP.  This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at November 8, 2016 4:20 PM MST
