I wonder if that’s true. Would a congress controlled by the Republican party of today really follow through with impeachment for that? I’m sure such a president would have all kinds of excuses as to why they had to do it and how their rival was a threat to national security etc etc that their followers would take at face value.
Well, just kill the representatives and senators that won’t fall in line. According to Trump, it’s legal
Preemptively
Meanwhile, Republicans didn’t impeach him because “the courts should decide.”
They’re trying to create Schrodinger’s Dictator.
And he knows it.
I don’t think any party would do it. To go further, why would any of them? When the votes become public knowledge from congress to impeach, what’s to stop the president ordering anyone who said yes from assassinating them before the senate goes for conviction?
Either the president scares the senate away (in case they don’t convict and the president will know who said yes) or he goes to jail/is executed no matter how many they had killed.
Even kill anyone you know will say yes before they vote to impeach. IMMUNITY!
