Currently, the United States Senate is reportedly carrying out its duties and serving, as a jury, after the House of Representatives voted to impeach it and introduced the Articles of Impeachment. However, since polling of Senators indicates that not even 30% of these individuals are proceeding, with an open mind, and openly expressing their decisions/verdict, up front, how can they responsibly carry out their duties. , as a fair – jury? The real question and hurdle this nation faces, both in the short term and in the future, is not simply whether Donald Trump is guilty, but rather whether the way this is being handled demonstrates a significant failure, both in integrity and quality of our political system, and, yes, we respect the assumption – concept, Nobody above the law! When 88% of Republicans in the Senate automatically opposed the process, by stating (despite the statements of the vast majority of constitutionalists and jurists), proceeding is unconstitutional, we must question, yes, the process of our Ancestors belief, that the prosecution, could handle, felonies and misdemeanors, in the future. With that in mind, this article will try, briefly, to consider, examine, review and discuss, 5 things, the handling of this, it says, about us.
1. Impeachment how to unearth: If a president supposedly cannot be held accountable in our courts and, being convicted of a chargeable crime, seems impossible, as currently designed, are we not signaling that presidents are above the law? ? The integrity and viability of this process are essential, both as a deterrent against future crime, but also in terms of how it is perceived by our citizens.
two. Can Elected Officials Be Fair?: Perhaps, in an ideal world, elected officials would put their responsibility in the oath of office and constitute, ahead of their personal/political agenda and/or self-interest! As the House committee’s chief prosecutor stated, If this is not a chargeable crime, what is? When the process seems almost completely along party lines, what does it say about the way we proceed forward?
3. What does it tell the rest of the world? Many believe that the reputation and image of this nation suffered significantly during these last four years! If, after a riot, where five have been killed and many injured, as well as destruction of property, etc., no one takes responsibility, he says, we don’t believe, words have impacts/ramifications!
Four. If Trump is not convicted, is it ever possible?: When, we witness, videos and other apparent evidence in real time and a direct relationship between Trump’s words (not only, immediately before, but for some time), if he is not going to be convicted, what does he have / will he have, the threat to be accused, in the future?
5. will it be this dark Period, be put, behind us?: Donald Trump is the only president who has ever been impeached twice! The level of polarization, when the nation would benefit from unification, etc., has created what many consider to be a dark Period, in our story! Because someone who was originally chosen largely based on draining the swamp, managing it, oversaw more swamp-like behavior than ever-before! While some say this trial is divisive and unnecessary since he is no longer president, others believe it sets a dangerous and troubling precedent if we fail to convict!
Is this trial, about Trump’s guilt, about the charge, or about the future of America, etc.? Wake up, United States, and demand, Senators, to do your duty, as your responsibility should be!
