Stand With President Trump Against Impeachment [ACT NOW]
The constitutional law professor who was one of the Democrat’s top impeachment witnesses has given the Democrats bad news after they pulled their latest impeachment stunt.
According to The Daily Wire:
Noah Feldman, one of the Democrats’ top impeachment witnesses against President Donald Trump, said in an op-ed on Thursday that Democrats have not yet impeached the president despite their vote last night.
…
Feldman noted that “according to the Constitution, impeachment is a process, not a vote,” and that while a modest delay would not pose a problem, an lengthy delay would be a “serious problem.”
“Impeachment as contemplated by the Constitution does not consist merely of the vote by the House, but of the process of sending the articles to the Senate for trial,” Feldman wrote. “Both parts are necessary to make an impeachment under the Constitution: The House must actually send the articles and send managers to the Senate to prosecute the impeachment. And the Senate must actually hold a trial.”
Feldman continued, “If the House does not communicate its impeachment to the Senate, it hasn’t actually impeached the president. If the articles are not transmitted, Trump could legitimately say that he wasn’t truly impeached at all.”
Feldman also stated that if the articles are not transmitted the Democrats will have deviated from constitutional protocol and will have effectively denied President Trump the ability to defend himself.
