      That’s not acceptable. In two years I hope yall can win back congress but until then America needs to grind to a halt. The country is actively causing harm and that needs to stop.

        For one, the people do not impeach a president, the Congress did. And point deux, impeachment does not result in removal of a president. Impeachment is the first step in removal and usually just amounts to Congress saying “we didn’t like what you did. Bad president!”

        Whatever you feel is acceptable is not how the government works here.

          The government in America does not currently work. Public pressure is required to fix an undemocratic situation.

        If half of this shit was happening in France the general public would have shut the country down a month ago.

        Americans are content to complain online and think the system that is ignoring this will suddenly do something about it.
