:sigh:

You cannot recall a United States Senator. They can only be expelled or voted out of office.

I’m not really seeing an overwhelming bias to vote for a conviction here. If I were a member of the Trump defense team, I’d be satisfied with this “juror”.

Will vote Democrat so he can sit home and ponder his career choice vote against the Magnificent Orange SOB.

Better to have a socialist Democrat than a cuck GOP.

It is almost impossible to recall a sitting U.S. senator. It has to originate in the senate, not from his home state. The swamp takes care of it's own.


It's never happened.

quote:

As to removal by recall, the United States Constitution does not provide for nor authorize the recall of United States officers such as Senators, Representatives, or the President or Vice President, and thus no Member of Congress has ever been recalled in the history of the United States. The recall of Members was considered during the time of the drafting of the federal Constitution in 1787, but no such provisions were included in the final version sent to the states for ratification, and the specific drafting and ratifying debates indicate an express understanding of the framers and ratifiers that no right or power to recall a Senator or Representative in Congress exists under the Constitution. Although the Supreme Court has not needed to directly address the subject of recall of Members of Congress, other Supreme Court decisions, as well as the weight of other judicial and administrative decisions, rulings, and opinions, indicate that (1) the right to remove a Member of Congress before the expiration of his or her constitutionally established term of office is one which resides exclusively in each house of Congress as expressly delegated in the expulsion clause of the United States Constitution, and (2) the length and number of the terms of office for federal officials, established and agreed upon by the states in the Constitution creating that federal government, may not be unilaterally changed by an individual state, such as through the enactment of a recall provision or a term limitation for a United States Senator or Representative. Under Supreme Court constitutional interpretation, since individual states never had the original sovereign authority to unilaterally change the terms and conditions of service of federal officials agreed to and established in the Constitution, such a power could not be “reserved” under the Tenth Amendment. Even the dissenters in the Supreme Court decision on the Tenth Amendment and term limits, who would have found a “reserved” authority in the states regarding “qualifications” of Members of Congress, conceded that the exclusive authority to remove a sitting Member is delegated to each house in the expulsion clause of the Constitution, and that with respect to “a power of recall ... the Framers denied to the States [such power] when they specified the terms of Members of Congress.”

There is no "evidence" listen to, just hysterical screeching from Democrats.

You wouldn't have read past the first line if you did. Every response is a piss-poor, 100% politician vomit. I needed Holy water and confession after reading what he sent me.

So in the interview, he held up air quote fingers when he said evidence.

That is just some BS political statement where he doesn't want to offend anyone. He should be saying that the whole thing is BS and of frickin course he won't be voting to convict but he is a pussy so of course he isn't saying that

The OP put up a very inaccurate and irresponsible post.

That poorly written article isn’t at all a credible source. Cassidy voted against a trial today.

How is Cassiday even in Congress. He's a fricking douche. I listened to him at a Trump rally, and I was embarrassed how awkward he was. Usually politicians are slick tongued sheisters. He's just a friggin douche. No bullshite . No stage presence...not witty....a complete dork. How does that get support in politics?

There is nothing in the article you linked that says Sen. Cassidy is going to vote to convict President Trump.

He even voted FOR Sen. Rand Paul's motion earlier today that this sham of a “trial” is unconstitutional.

The Epoch Times is fake news. Cassidy is a solid "not guilty" vote.


Wasting your time trying to console the right-wing version of sky screamers. They are upset so someone must feel their rage.
