Trump’s Lawyers Argue That He Cannot Be Impeached Because He Was Never Actually Elected - GoFuckYourself.com

WASHINGTON — In what they believe is a legal masterstroke, lawyers for Donald J. Trump are now claiming that he cannot be impeached because he was never actually elected.

In a lengthy memo sent to the special counsel, Robert Mueller, the lawyers pushed back vehemently against any allegation that Trump was legally elected President.

“Because Russian interference made the election of Donald J. Trump wholly illegitimate, any attempt to remove him from an office that he does not legally hold is clearly impossible,” the memo asserted.

The memo claimed that the Constitution contains “no provision for removing a person from office when that person was installed there by a foreign power.”

The memo went on to argue that, if a subpoena is sent to the White House, it will be returned to Mueller and stamped “addressee unknown.”

“A person referred to in a subpoena as ‘President’ Donald J. Trump simply does not exist,” the memo claimed.

Minutes after the memo was leaked, the former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani appeared on “Fox & Friends” and proudly announced that he was its author.

“Sometimes I have to just step back and say, ‘Damn it, Rudy, you’re good,’ ” he said, beaming.

Afraid to fight in Vietnam.

Afraid to visit our troops.

Afraid to hear tapes of Khashoggi's murder.

Afraid of women.

Afraid of refugees.

Afraid of rain.

Chump and his Fox news lawyers are morons. White house council is the only thing that saved his ass

Trump Wanted to Order Justice Dept. to Prosecute Comey and Clinton

The lawyer, Donald F. McGahn II, rebuffed the president, saying that he had no authority to order a prosecution. Mr. McGahn said that while he could request an investigation, that too could prompt accusations of abuse of power. To underscore his point, Mr. McGahn had White House lawyers write a memo for Mr. Trump warning that if he asked law enforcement to investigate his rivals, he could face a range of consequences, including possible impeachment.

It was, which is why I didn't link the source.

It had nothing to do with the fact it was satire.

When you use someone else's material it is proper to provide a link to the source. Simple as that.

I guess that only matters if it is your content.

Even brassmonkey knows that much.

I am not "glum" at all. I am the most upbeat and positive person you will ever met. Between working full time for YNOT, my local business, and charity work for victims of the fire this past week I've been running on three hours of sleep a night for some time now... Yet still I am upbeat.

I find all of this comical. It's amazing how dumb this administration is.

The best part was Ivanka and her emails. "I didn't know". Setting aside she works in the White House, her father's entire campaign was based on "lock her up" which was about Hillary and her email use. How could she not know?
