I am sure the House has the authority to do such a thing. A "censure" would be mild punishment for his reckless behavior. I would like to see Pelosi plant that in his ear.
The reason being, that before they were to vote to certify, a couple of Republican election officials got a phone call from Donald Trump. Very questionable and very illegal. That behavior can no longer be tolerated. She should call him on the carpet. He needs to stop crapping on our country.
Now.
