President Donald John Trump

[Happy Monkey]

There's no such thing as an "impeachable crime"; it's purely up to Congress. Their guidance is "high crimes and misdemeanors", but in the end it's just whether 50%+1 of the Representatives, and 67% of the Senators want you out.

Actually, it's about half that. If 50% + 1 of the Representatives vote in favor of impeachement, the President is impeached. Period.

The Senate may or may not convict with a 2/3 vote in favor, but the President is still impeached, cf. Clinton.

There seems to be a disparity here.

There are impeachable crimes, they just aren't written into law.

And so, at that time, a blow job from an intern is impeachable. Is that an impeachable crime today? Or something that is nobody's business?

Unfortunately, even the US Constitution will not discuss it.
