Here's an impeachment alternative that we would all like.

[Jakes Progress]

How about nullification. Once the Mueller report is translated and with the House investigations shows that trump came into power using illegal means, we have to nullify the election.

Reset the government back to the last legally and democratically elected administration. Set aside all appointments and policies made by the illegal presidency. That administration would serve until the next regular election.

Yeah. I know. But it's great to imagine a dignified and caring president again.

(Oh. And when trump is no longer president, sic the Southern New York District Court on him for his racketeering.)

[dlk]

1. In this Circumstance, Nullification Would be a Just Outcome

This entire administration is illegitimate.

[TalenaGor]

2. yes this would be justice

But probably also civil war

[dlk]

3. Nullification Would Remove the Many Rewards for Stealing a Presidential Election

If only...

[TalenaGor]

4. if only....or

Install the rightfully elected president.....

Or president pelosi and vp Clinton ...then pelosi resigns....

A number of remedies I would appreciate lol

Most of all....sooo many prison terms for sooo many people!

[lastlib]

17. ...For SO-O-O-OO-O-o-o LO-O-O-O-ON-N-NNNNGGGggg...

("sooo many prison terms for sooo many people!&quot

[TalenaGor]

19. yes! and financial ruin.... and public embarrassment.....

And a barbwire enema!

Okay maybe I was on too much of a roll there lol

[monmouth4]

5. One of the many advantages to this would be good-bye to Kavanaugh. That's the first thing off the

top of my head. What a great idea.

[Jakes Progress]

6. And gorsuch

That would be two for the last honest president we had to nominate.

[monmouth4]

7. Agreed. This idea has sooooo many potentials..

[Karadeniz]

8. How many times have I wanted this? If trump can be shown to be guilty of conspiracy his

election was illegal. But, pence is also illegal since he was part of an illegal campaign. There's a legal view that a crime should not benefit the malefactors. Thus, trumps SC nominees and all the fed judges he nominated...he had no right to be in the position of nominating.

Wouldn't it be loverly?

[struggle4progress]

9. If we just make up the rules as we go along, we will have no grounds to complain

when our opponents do the same

[blueinredohio]

10. I'm in.

[delisen]

11. I'd rather the real winner of the election serve after the imposters step down

The last administration completed its term in office.That administration was not wronged.

[lunatica]

12. Not everything should be automatically nullified

just in case something thanks actually beneficial has been implemented. But it would be good to have a special review of all Executive orders for a start.

[FakeNoose]

13. That would be the most extreme Constitutional crisis EVER!

We would really and truly be in Neverland if this happened. I think I want to stick with the tried & true methods that are proscribed in the Constitution. We're gonna get him out, don't worry!

We can be sure that if the Democrats should start inventing new ways to get rid of Chump, it's going to come back and bite us in the butt tenfold when the next Democratic President is in office. He's not worth it, to quote Speaker Pelosi.

[TruckFump]

14. That would mean the turds the orange asshole put on SCOTUS

would be gone!!!! If tRump is nullified, IMO, so are his nominations to the high court!

[Fiendish Thingy]

15. Nah, I still prefer impeachment

And SDNY is federal, not state.

[Jakes Progress]

20. That would leave

pence, his cabinet, his executive orders, and his supreme court picks.

Nah. I like nullification.

[Sogo]

16. I've heard this "alternative" before, however....

....there is no such thing as "nullification" in the Constitution.

You suggestion is a pipe dream.

I like to deal in reality.

[Jakes Progress]

21. I said as much.

Dealing is reality right now is very depressing.

I'll get up Monday and be real.

[912gdm]

18. governance is not a sim game that we can all hit 'restart' over.

honestly, this should be moved to creative speculation, or a fiction subgroup.

all these "what if" threads should be fed into an idea feeder for screenwriters. It might end up as great drama, but its not based in any reality.

[jmowreader]

22. You're going to need to amend the Constitution to get that to work

And I don't really like the idea of nullification. What would happen is simple: every damn time we managed to elect a Democrat to the presidency, the fucking Republicans would nullify the election and install the puke against the will of the electorate.

I have a better idea: first we beat Trump like the red-headed stepchild that he is in November 2020, then we wait until the inauguration, and then we charge him with all the shit he did to steal the election.

And THEN we read the Constitution, realize that while that document requires a Supreme Court it doesn't say how to set one up, and decide that the country has gotten so large a single Supreme Court panel isn't enough to take care of this nation's justice needs. We then create a new Supreme Court with six benches...DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, either Los Angeles or San Francisco, and Seattle. And we disperse all the right-wing justices so there's only one per bench, filling up the rest of the seats with the judges on the 9th Circuit.
