Nixon was almost impeached for spying on the Democrats and lying about it during an election season.

So Trump should be impeached for being spied on by the Democrats and lied to during an election season???

Relax, he will not be impeached unless you can convince a few Republican Senators that his crimes warrant it. That is a very high standard. They would need to see clear and convincing proof so serious that if they ignore it they won't get reelected.

I'm moved to say : My esteem for Geraldo Rivera has been up and down for a long time. But at the moment it's very high.

On the "not fake news" Fox “The Five” he went off script and said :

“I am ashamed." “The tear gas choked me. We treat these people, these economic refugees, as if they’re zombies from ‘The Walking Dead.’”

“These are desperate people. They walked 2,000 miles. Why? Because they want to rape your daughter or steal your lunch? No! Because they want a job. They want to fill the millions of unfilled jobs we have in the agricultural sector. They want to wash dishes in the restaurants. They want to deliver the pizzas. For goodness sake, we suspend our humanity when it comes to this issue, and I fear that it is because they look different than the mainstream.”


There's the Rivera I once loved.

Great point, so then what is the proper way to treat people storming the gate?

During the Obama admin tear gas was used dozens and dozens of times. On women and children too. But now that Trump is Prez, tear gas is no longer available to use because we hold Trump to a higher standard.

Same thing happened when children on the border were placed in "cages." It was fine for Obama to do it, but now we hold Trump to a higher standard.

Except for their double standards, the Left would have no standards at all.

Yes, I was hoping Awareness would reveal this much better method to us since he is the one that talked about how horrible the border guards were for guarding the border.

From a certain religious standpoint Donald Trump is the Democratic party's bad karma.

I can agree. When the Democratic platform now demands every member be an atheistic abortionist constantly virtue signaling to the American people, they deserve a philanderer like Bill Clinton, who has repented of his old ways and now confesses faith in God.

I also agree, ever since Taft the Democratic party has been trying to prevent the workers from voting for socialist candidates. Govt policies don't make sense if you think they represent the people, when 80% of those people are simply working men. Socialized medicine should be a no brainer. If Bernie Sanders were the head of the party that would make sense, but the Democratic party is the biggest fraud pretending to do the bidding of the workers. Seriously, the Clinton's were broke when He left office and retired, but in 14 years since then, working on a govt salary and pension, they are worth over $100 million.

Have you forgotten the rules? Only a House majority in needed for impeachment, and a Senate super-majority is needed for conviction.

Both Ken Starr and Muller have proved how far off these Special Prosecutors can go. There's not a man in this country, given time with federal agents, who cannot be convicted of lying. Bill C, Mike Flynn, Popodopolous, and more have all learned this. The threshold standard for Lying is so low. General Flynn was just having a casual conversation about the election with Agent Peter Strzok at the White House, not under oath, nor represented by his atty. Yet we all know that FBI agents like Strzok never lie, so by definition, Flynn is guilty. Not guilty of collusion or obstruction or any actual crime, but guilty of working with Trump, the enemy of the Deep State.

Yes, Clinton was impeached but not convicted. So that is your concern an impeachment hearing that results in him not being convicted?

I mentioned that to clarify things. Most believe that impeachment alone removes the President from office.
