When President Trump was elected (if not before), the Democrats began planning his impeachment. It didn&#8217;t matter what he did, he was going to be impeached. Impeachment, contrary to the wishes of our Founding Fathers, was going to be a political weapon used to remove a political opponent from office.<\/p>\n<p>There are two purposes to this move&#8211;the first is the hope that it will prevent President Trump from being re-elected. Barring a serious financial decline, President Trump will be re-elected. The Democrats know this and are trying to prevent it. The second purpose is even worse. If President Trump is re-elected and there is a vacancy on the Supreme Court, the cry of the Democrats will be, &#8220;A President under the shadow of impeachment should not be allowed to appoint a Supreme Court Justice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>We could debate whether or not the actions of the Democrat party in this matter are technically legal. However, they are not in line with their Oath of Office which says they will defend the Constitution. This is a total undermining of the Constitution. I hope voters are awake enough to see what is going on. If not, we will lose our Republic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This article is based on two recent posts from The Conservative Treehouse, one posted today and one posted yesterday.
