Just curious and have to ask for those of you who have called this man a coward have any of you been in a combat situation where you actually had to kill someone else and face your own mortality? This isn't to say this man failed in his duties but people in general aren't as heroic as they like to think and only a very small percentage of the population is genetically wired to kill another human being. The military is well aware of this and has put in place training methods to get soldiers more accustomed to actually ending another humans life .
@VakAttack apologies if you've answered this already. What approach do you believe the defense will take? I've heard some argue the president isn't listed in section 3. Dershowitz argues there is an impeachment provision that requires a 2/3 vote & on those grounds the Supreme Court will rule in favor of Trump. Others note the Due Process Clause in the 14th and an argument can be made there. Just wondering what strategies the defense team might take
My best attempt to answer this question is no conviction is not required. It was never specified in the 14th. During that era Congress was preventing Southerners involved with the Confederacy during the Civil War from ever holding office. @VakAttack this sound somewhat correct?
My only request is that when I become a NCAA champ and place higher than @Interviewed_at_Weehawken that I will be bestowed with the Cael Sanderson Award and every other poster who follows and jumps Alexander Hamilton is presented with the same award. That should be tradition
@BobDole I have 1,393 posts (Including this) with 929 reactions. That's a 66.69% appreciation rate. @Wrestleknownothing can appreciate those stats yet I'm only an All American? How many NCAA champs have that pinfall rate?
