"Impeachment as good politics? So, willfully planning to circumvent the electoral process through unconstitutional usage of the impeachment process is good politics? Sounds more like a manipulative means of overthrowing the duly elected president. Should they succeed in this plot; what's next? Immediately attempt to impeach Pence?
What does this say for the future of the country if this should actually occur? Would any president ever be secure in the office if the opposition party held the houses of congress?

Nothing unconstitutional at all about impeachment. It was legal against Clinton then, and it would be legal against Trump today. It is, in fact, the remedy provided for in our laws for removing a president. Majority in the House to impeach and 2/3 majority in the senate to convict.

Where I'm going to disagree with all of this and say, bring it on, the whole gun grabbing and threatening impeachment is not doing them any favors. If anything it highlights the true intent of that party and it's not doing them any favors.
If that's what their platform is going to be then fine, that's their platform, we live in a free country, and I can vote for someone else.

SSG (Join to see) - Democrats have not tried to grab anyone's guns anywhere other than on Inforwars, Fox and Breitbart. They certainly haven't in the US House or Senate.
As for Hillary, she isn't president and as such has been using any office for personal gain lately. She is also not in any way relevant to weather or not anyone should tolerate a sitting president enriching himself at taxpayer expense by means of his office. Had Obama used his own properties for anything other than vacations the right would be screaming, and they were, constantly, about the amount of golf he (Obama) played. Funny how silent all of those Obama golf-hating Republicans are now that Trump spends practically every weekend raking taxpayer dollars into his own properties and spends MUCH more of his time and our money on golf, that goes right into his own corporate coffers. Hypocrisy.

Illinois town bans assault weapons, will fine those who keep them
Owning an assault weapon in Deerfield, Ill., could cost you $1,000 per day.

The subject isn’t gun control or the legality of it, or even who choose to place on my block list. The subject is whether or not it is legal or wise for Democrats, if they take control of the House, to impeach Trump.
I’ve not been hypocritical at all. Someone posted an article about Democrats wanting to impeach Trump, I responded that they can impeach (but not likely convict) if they control the House and possibly the senate.
If you are either an extreme religious zealot of believe what Allex Jones on Infowars says, then either save us both the time and say so or just show it in your writing.
Or, stick to the issue being discussed and discuss it in a rational manner.
Your choice, but I won’t waste any time with the zealots or the alt-right. None at all.

That is the goal. Remove a President you don't like, simply because you don't like them.
After said standard is made, Democrats would cry if that was tried against their person in the future.

Major Fishkind couldn't provide a precedent for using the Emoluments Clause, so he resorts to personal insults and blocking. I suppose that's one way to go through life, pretending nobody disagrees with you.

Former President Obama almost cried anytime someone looked at his ears, I would hate to thing of what would happen to him if he had all these people after him: he would be curled up on the ground in a fetal position.

In politics, there is no "level playing field". You make a mistake, there will be someone there to cash in on it. It's how the game is played. What should be looked at is how many folks that are on the chopping block for midterms ask Trump/Pence to stump for them, and how many do not. Obama had his detractors during his midterms and you saw what happened to them, and those who accepted him. You see what happened to them.

You are right my friend. The only thing that has changed over the last 15 years is the FBI and DOJ are now part of politics and have taken a side in who get prosecuted. I stand corrected: looking at the non-prosecution of the Clintons, I have to say the FBI and DOJ took political sides about +33 years ago.
