Bankrupt Republican Party: Intellectually Bankrupt, Morally Bankrupt, and Running Scared

I had tried to maintain that the Republican Party is still redeemable, had tried to maintain that it could perhaps rehabilitate itself and get back to being a functional political party again, had tried to maintain that it is worthwhile in the admittedly messy world of politics to negotiate and make deals with reasonable people within the Republican Party. But then came this vote on February 9, a determination to be based upon nothing other than intellectual analysis of constitutional law, analysis of precedent, and analysis of the Framer’s intent, in order to judge whether the Constitution allows for the impeachment of an official not presently holding office. The answer is an unequivocal yes, <a href="https://www.rev.com/blog/transcripts/rep-jamie-raskin-opening-statement-transcript-trumps-second-impeachment-trial" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">by law, by history, by Founder’s intent</a>, and by any other measure you wish to apply. Yet 44 Republicans voted no. That vote was not based on any substantive argument, as no credible substantive legal counter argument was put forward. <a href="https://faytelth23.medium.com/bankrupt-republican-party-intellectually-bankrupt-morally-bankrupt-and-running-scared-e9fb2368437d">Visit Now</a>
