      "Finding" or "making up", it's all the same to republicans. "Alternate facts" and all that.. They finally got their dream of constituents telling them they will believe anything they say even if there is proof it's a lie, so they are going hog wild.

      It is disheartening that it has come to this. Like it or not, trump has the right to appeal. So, at this point, setting the legal precedent for this foolery is the best option to shut ot down.

      "It really needs to go to Supreme Court to decide if our president is a king? "
      nope. article 1 section 3, iirc, says the president is NOT immune from criminal prosecution.
      to be accurate, it says if the president commits a a crime, they can be tried for it after they are impeached.
      this is a no brainer, and the trump lawyers don't have a leg to stand on. they are just doing it to delay.
      the only reason to even hear the case is to smack trump down and put a precedent on the board for the next idiot.

      He used to be able to get decent lawyers, but then he got a reputation for not following advice of council and being sued for non-payment of legal fees. Also, most firms don't want to deal with the PR nightmare that comes with taking him on as a client now. One of his only good lawyers had to leave his firm in order to take his case in Florida, because his firm was getting backlash from Trump's stink leaching onto their other clients. And even then, he only took the case because he got a $3 million retainer, up front. Ordinarily the best law firms in the country would be lining up to defend a current or former president, which is what happened with Bill Clinton's impeachment. Not so much for Donny...

It is an impeachment inquiry. Inquiry is the equivalent of an investigation. Impeachment would be the equivalent of an indictment. That's by definition an investigative exercise at this point.

      They are hoping that Biden is too much of a good person to actually make use of their claims that: The president could literally execute the opposing party and the worst they have to deal with is the dry cleaning bill.
      I mean. Surely even if it was Mahatma Gandhi that was president they'd make use of the carte blanche to commit any crime necessary to ensure the people that pushes for that insane freedom don't remain in power.
      Though to be fair in that case it'd likely be by illegally ripping up the constitution and laws that got the government to the current state, and writing a new constitution that is a bit more modern than the opinion that only land-owning white men are worthy of voting.

      Not even this court will uphold Trump’s ludicrous claim. Think about what it would mean if they did - the presidency would immensely be immune from any check whatsoever. They would be placing a dictator over themselves. Not gonna happen. Besides, Kavanaugh wrote a brief in the late 90’s demolishing this question, I’m sure in an attempt to prove Clinton wasn’t immune from prosecution. The media has been treating this as if it were a real issue that might go Trump’s way. It isn’t, and it won’t.
