106. No not demanding anything

Wed Aug 4, 2021, 02:41 PM

Aug 2021

Do not attempt to try to put words in my mouth so to speak. I simply pointed out that you were wrong when you say that it has been proven because until it is proven in a court of law it is not really proven. An investigation is not a court.

In addition the person running the investigation, the ag is now apparently considering running for governor, I am not sure if that is true. If so that is a conflict of interest.

I recall you yourself stating a while back that you were more concerned with things you felt C had done wrong with handling the pandemic than the harassment charges. You’ve changed your mind apparently which is your right.

It is also my right to have my opinion on all of this. I don’t have to walk lockstep with Biden or anyone else. This is going to directly affect me as I have already said twice but maybe it needs repeating here.

This is not a good situation, if you think forcing a governor out of office is a good thing in these circumstances you are imo wrong.

His constituents should decide. LakeArenal Aug 2021 #14

How can his constituents decide if he should resign? tritsofme Aug 2021 #17

My answer was no. LakeArenal Aug 2021 #25

His constituents are represented by legislators. Those legislators can impeach him Jose Garcia Aug 2021 #40

you are now sliding the goalposts. Impeachment is a political move, not a legal move. Celerity Aug 2021 #99

I am not sliding anything I responded to two of your points Meowmee Aug 2021 #100

You are now demanding that he be tried and convicted in a court of law before he needs to go. Celerity Aug 2021 #102

No not demanding anything Meowmee Aug 2021 #106

I disagree with you completely. Biden, Pelosi, 100% of the NY congressional delegation, etc. all Celerity Aug 2021 #107
