Topic	Trump acquitted

That argument makes no fucking sense. There are things you can say that would clearly be impeachable if said by a president, but fine for a private citizen because it's protected speech. If the president said foreign countries should invade a US state, or said that X state should secede, that would be impeachable (but as a private citizen you wouldn't face any consequence from saying it). --- Take me for what I am -- who I was meant to be. And if you give a damn, take me baby, or leave me. <cite>Clench281 posted [p:950610942] in Trump acqu...
