Late Impeachment

Here is a link to an analysis of the effect of late impeachment (impeachment after the culprit is out of office.)

It has both for and against arguments. It can be done. The point is made, why bother?

I have been following the Plane to Turnberry news, and there are those that say he expects to announce his candidacy for President in 2024 at that time.

This man is not fit to hold this office again. We would be utterly derelict in our duty if we had the goods on him, yet were too lazy to impeach him to prevent this fascist from running ever again.

We MUST impeach him. While he is golfing in Scotland, we need to move forward with impeaching him. We should have Articles of Impeachment written up and filed and served on the two-bit attorney of his choice before he leaves town. Remember the dramatic walk over of the Articles from Impeachment No. 1? That needs to be done again.

If you think that it is not worth it, just remember the pain and fear he has caused you. A little effort today can prevent this from happening again tomorrow. We need to do this.

And to make this clear: We can ask that he would be prohibited from ever running for any office again. This is the main reason for a late impeachment.
