He's still pResident. Why?

[SHRED]

Does the Executive Branch hold too much power?

Is this just so far from anything the framers envisioned?

All of the above?

[dameatball]

1. Because the investigation is not over and GOP controlled branches will not act until they are

dragged kicking and screaming to the undeniable truth. Pretty simple really.

[democratisphere]

2. If it wasn't difficult to remove a POTUS from office, each party

would devote all of their time in removing the opposition's President.

[Meowmee]

3. Mainly

Because of the gop not doing anything. But things may change, it is hard to tell in these crazy times. I would say yes it has too much power.

[triron]

4. Founders could not have anticipated someone so corrupt getting into the WH as POTUS

And such a supine congress. Also, Americans are dumbed down.

[HipChick]

5. Americans are dumbed down...

They should be marching on Washington right now..

6. What They Never Envisioned Was A Spineless Congress Willing To Prop Up A Corrupt President

He's still President because the Republicans in Congress lack the will to stand up to him and put the country ahead of their Party affiliation. Even when it's becoming obvious that they'll go down with the ship. I've never seen anything like it myself.

[ooky]

7. He is still president because Republicans are derelict in their duty.

As soon as Cohen plead guilty and implicated Lard Ass as a co-conspirator to his crime the House should have impeached him and forced the Senate to try him.

That's why as soon as we take over as the majority in the House we need to take care of it.

The framers didn't realize a Congress could be this spineless.

[leanforward]

8. All of the above.

Shouldn't pResident be spelled pRezident, after all, they have made significant investments in him for money laundering since the mid 80s.

Too much power. Especially, since they never found those WPD. I saw Cheney the other day and he reminded me of his push to invade Iraq and then shooting his buddy while bird hunting. A hair trigger. And he outed V Plame because her husband, the Ambassador did not write a flaming report.

The war powers needs to be narrowed significantly. We need a few more critical thinkers or senate oversight.

Why? I'm thinking there is a point when the Special Counsel (SC) will issue an indictment/report that will summarize specifically what we've gleaned from later pages. I suspect "Individual-1" will appear in other indictments.

9. The GOP has become a cult with Trump as it's leader.

They will never turn on him and without the GOP nothing can be done about him.

[GulfCoast66]

10. Because the constitution was a brilliant way to set up a slave holding confederation of states

In the late 1700s.

It is totally inadequate to be the guiding document in the 2000s.

Heresy, I know. But it is what it is.

Keep the Bill of Rights and give me a parliament.
