He still has interests in NY and is required to pay state taxes there. His main two headaches is that he reported to the government one statement of property worth and reported a different statement to the banks. His second headache is that we called some land around one of his property such that it gave him a $19M tax credit. That credit is in question if it was actually valid. The reason all of this has dragged out is that he has been using his Presidential title as an excuse to not release his tax returns even though the courts told him that that is bogus.

One thing that most do not understand correctly, impeachment is not the end of the process but the beginning. We have had other Presidents impeached but not found guilty by the Senate. Either the President resigned or the Senate did not convict. As long as the impeachment is approved by the House before the President leave office, he can still be convicted after his term is up. He cannot be removed from office but he can be stopped from running or holding another federally elected position. Later, Eldon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that were the case (simple majority) there would be no question that he would be convicted. Since the Senate is split 50/50, the Republican party will be required to provide 17 votes to convict. Are there 17 honest Republicans in the Senate who will openly consider the evidence and actions that lead up to the riots and sedition in Washington? That's far from clear.

Later, Eldon I believe he can be kept from office if he is convicted in the Senate, where the trial is actually heard. The impeachment (as I understand it) is the formal declaration and levying of the charges. I'm unclear if that alone keeps him from running for office in the future. Open to correction as always, of course. Quote '17 Evora 400 MT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Open to correction as always, of course. From what I've heard, via the news, is that the conviction alone does not stop him from holding office. The senate will then have to have another vote that requires a simple majority that would prevent him from holding a federal office again.

comem47 Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I'd like to see that not only can he not run again (stirring up more social unrest) ,but he is stripped of his post-president benefits (like secret service protection) That would happen with a conviction. be gone satan !!!!

I think a two thirds majority is unlikley. Some of the GOP won't want to close off the option and most of it won't want to be the party of the first convicted president.

andydclements Posted January 14, 2021 Report Share Posted January 14, 2021 I think that description is fair, but I don't think he would have been in any position to state facts to support the various cases, since to date nobody seems to have found any materially relevant cases of fraud (not say there was any , not saying there was none, just that if a few were found in each state it really isn't going to alter the result). I now cannot think of Trump without thinking of a mix of Gollum and this (apologies to US members who may not be familiar with this series of films aka movies). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounded just like you and from here it's hard to see much difference. Please forward my message to Barry if you'd be so kind as he said he won't be making any more contributions here. I'll be just as pleased to be corrected about Mandela from him if he can find some evidence. Now go back to your moaning chair, have a seat by the fire and a nice hot cuppa.

It can't be God! It isn't good and no man should have such unrestricted power. I wonder if that will ever be addressed. That's a constitutional power which means it would require an amendment to alter the scope of the thing. Nobody expects The Spanish Inquisition....or such a feckless and corrupted president.
