ANALYSIS: With a little creativity, the House could impeach Donald Trump, while allowing the Senate to avoid a trial. This is how it would work.

It’s not totally out of the realm of possibility

What’s more, the idea of impeachment and censure, without acquittal, still has to begin with a vote to impeach the president, which should make this approach palatable to those House members, or their constituents, who insist on impeaching the president. The history books will still describe Trump as joining Johnson and Clinton’s small, infamous circle.

If Trump could be impeached & the censured, so could have Barack Obama & most US presidents.

Avoid, nullify, and exonerate.

The Democrats are good at imaginary crimes

Well done. Now to get the Dem Caucus to play alone. The hard part is not the Dems, it is MSM. They will find every reason, drag in 'experts', and make a huge fuss over this being 'unfair'. Their vested interest in dragging this out to help Trump win is ugly.

Sounds like a Buzzfeed Facebook article. 5 WAYS YOU COULD AVOID AN IMPEACHMENT DISASTER WITH THIS ONE WIERD TRICK POLITICIANS DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW.

Now this law professor paid for by taxpayers wants crooked House Dems who are already destroying separation of powers between executive and legislative to destroy co-equal nsture of House and Senate within legislative. This is beyond sickening.

“Protect the integrity “ of the election - more like over throw the election. I hate this precedent they are setting. Short sighted for sure

Activist journalism

the dems want to avoid the trail where trump will be vindicated and their crimes will be on full display. this whole thing is all for the soundbyte for 2020 that their partisan globalist totalitarian house democrats impeached the president.

That's an L

Yes create a crime, that's all Dems can come up with. How can these people sleep at night? I bet there not lol, they known the president is coming to expose there crimes! Can't wait.

I think Trump would be emboldened by the procedural game playing. Like the Robin Williams joke about English policeman with no guns, ‘Stop!...or I’ll say stop again!’

Sounds like the Resistance is trying to float a face-saving way to get out of the impeachment hole they dug themselves.

Who cares we all know how this is going to work out. Don't we?
