Good for the country, I'd say. Should Trump become president, we'd really need a Republican House and Senate — to constrain his "proclivities"…
Wow is that ever deluded. If Trump wins and a Republican Congress will be kissing his fascist ass. If Congress does remain in Republican hands, I'm thinking there is one hope, depending on his fraud charges play out. We need to find out if a president can be impeached for crimes committed before entering office.
Article 2, section 4 of the constitution says:
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors
You'll note it doesn't specify when the crimes have to committed The failure of the plan is that a party afraid of Mexicans, Muslims, Chinese, some red guy with horn, gays, etc doesn't have the balls since they're afraid of everything.
