Why impeachment wouldn’t necessitate removal from office

Some may note the Constitution, Article 2, Section 4, calls for ‘removal from office’.

“The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

But the pertinent section above reads “…impeachment for, and Conviction of…”

This president is a narcissist. If the impeachment proceedings are going against him, he will not want, as his legacy, to be known as the first ‘impeached’ black president.

Congress can force him to cease his lawless activities, in exchange for no conviction.

And, if he’s not convicted after impeachment…he won’t be removed from office.

Senate impeachment requires 2/3 voting ‘for’ (Article 1, Section 3). And, if the deceitful Democrat Senate cohort are sitting on trial next to Obama, the GOP has that majority.

Better legal minds can work out the details, but ’twere best done quickly…

…because with this president, there’s not a lie that can’t be spoken…

…and there’s not a law that can’t be broken.

De-fang him (but, don’t let the Democrat Senate off the hook).
