But that's not going to happen and going all "extrajudicial" on a few here or there is only going to empower the remaining <deleted>. It’s not happening so much in the real world, but, on the internet, there’s more and more talk of “bringing out the guillotines.” It isn’t healthy because it shows people losing faith in democracy when the real problem is apathy and cheating rather than democracy. Besides, that kind of talk often tends to empower authoritarians rather than the liberal-minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also a partisan, and when I see my party become pretty much indistinguishable from the opposition party I see that democracy is becoming abused and that the people need to take charge once again.

I don’t disagree, but would stop short at violence. At least for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to get "triggered" by the news of the day, but it's core values that matter. This too will pass, but there are lessons to be learned. I certainly have learned as much from what I wouldn't wish to emulate as that which I would wish to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxYakov Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'd bet that most Americans cannot even spell the word "impeach" (or is it "impeech"?), much less understand what it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that bad but I think most Americans don't realize that impeachment requires conviction in the senate to remove.
