    Nonsense. Article I, Section 2.

    That doesn’t support conducting an impeachment trial of a former president.

    Because you refuse to accept it. Rather, you cling to the ideas you already have in your head. You have a false notion of what is meant by unity. One that you've concocted. After being informed on what is meant by unity, you crawl back into your mind and say, "Nuh-uh!"

    Heavy confirmation bias.

    What part of "sole power" isn't clear?

    I hope you appreciate the irony of your comment.

    No one is asking anyone to work together to achieve "liberal" ideas. Congress should work together to achieve ideas that benefit us all. By working together they can compromise.

    Ok, how do you do that if the ideas how to accomplish that are so opposed?

    Again, the left’s idea of unity is no opposition.

    Unity of ideas is not one of the principles the country was founded upon. In fact it was just the opposite.

    Civility should be the goal, not unity.

    Nope. Not at all.

    Unity is working together toward a common goal. The country was designed for this very thing. How we achieve these goals is debatable. It has nothing to do with unity of politics.

    I understand. After four years of division, wiping one's ass has been politicized. "Roll unwinds over the top: Republican. Underneath: Democrat."

    You'll need to see life through a non-political lens to join us. Biden wants to extend unemployment benefits and get the vaccine distributed. These are American issues that affect Democrats, Republicans and independents.

    What part of “former president” or “private citizen” isn’t clear?

    If you want the prevent Trump from seeking future office, there’s a proper way to that.

    Hopeless. Have a good day.

    You're misunderstanding. It's uniting to work together. How do people who have different ideas work together? Compromise. Just like any negotiation. Both sides have their wants, you give a little you get a little until it's hashed out. Have you never negotiated with someone who is opposed to what you want?

    I get it. To see things through a non political lens and achieve unity means that one needs to agree with liberals.

    Impeachment is for a sitting president.

    An impeachment trial now would be a demonstration of divisive partisan politics. They type you’d see in a banana republic.

    No, you don't get it at all, and by your posts here, you won't. Have a good one.

    Biden has been very hands off on the impeachment issue, for good reasons.

    In any case, you can lead a horse to the water, but you can't make it drink. Biden extended an olive branch to the Republicans in his inauguration speech. It is up to them to take him up on it. Or, they can go back to what the did for 8 years under Obama and obstruct with all their might. My guess it, it will be the latter.

    Obviously you are only looking for agreement.

    So, a private citizen can be impeached?

    If you trumpers are pissed because the Dems want to see trump impeached, you're really going to be pissed when trump faces criminal charges in Federal Court. The F.B.I. has been making arrests daily for the crime that occurred on 1-6. Do you think they're going to let one of the instigators get a free pass. You ain't seen nothin' yet!!
