If We Don’t Impeach Trump, ‘He Will Get Re-Elected’

Rep. Al Green (D., Texas) said on Saturday that if Democrats don't begin impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, "he will get re-elected."

Green, who has called for Trump's removal from office since 2017 and introduced articles of impeachment that year, told MSNBC that he dismissed the idea that impeaching Trump could help him politically.

"I'm concerned if we don't impeach this president, he will get re-elected. If we don't impeach him, he will say he's been vindicated," Green said. "He will say the Democrats had an overwhelming majority in the House and they didn't take up impeachment. He will say that we had a constitutional duty to do it if it was there, and we didn't. He will say he's been vindicated."

Green added he and fellow House Democrats face a constitutional crisis on the question of impeachment.

Democrats have that overwhelming majority in the House but can't seem to get their heads out of pointlessly stupid mode to get a damned thing done but whine about their President, the one that puts the previous pick to shame.

Reagan could at least act given a script. This dope can't keep his mouth shut. He should adopt......." I don't RECALL " and cover his ass whilst he can since he has no National Security backing.

Impeach if it makes you feel any better but I got news for you. It won't pass the Senate and it will make Trump's base stronger. It will re-elect President Trump.

Al Green should have someone read and explain the Constitution to him.

Impeachment is a remedy that is for infractions that are listed in the Constitution. It's not there to saber rattle about because someone you hate got elected.

Perhaps he can talk to his House Democrat colleague Alcee Hastings about impeachment. Hastings was a Federal judge who was impeached and removed for bribery, one of just a handful of judges removed since the Constitution was adopted. Hastings subsequently was elected from Florida.

Green's shoe size may exceed his IQ.

The Democrats are so stupid. You have to have some grounds to impeach on. Trump has done nothing that is impeachable. You cannot just impeach a President because you dont like him.

If they do impeach Trump, he will definitely get re-elected.
