Ok, I had a good 50's style civics knowledge, I never heard of Impeaching a president to specifically Prevent them From Running for the office Again, (so long as they have not completed Two Terms).
I've seen Mayors and Governors over the years get convicted of things and still Run for office, I recall Several got re-elected serving or pending sentences.
This whole Notion of them Impeaching President Trump to prevent his second Term Seems Made Up to Me ?
aNYONE kNOW ?
I think it's just to implant the Notion that WHEN he Runs Next Time, it would be an easy Headiline that to run would be illegitimate no ?
the 14th amendment, section3, says you can't run for office if found guilty of insurrection and stuff. It isn't the impeachment that matters in this part, it's that it is for insurrection. If it's not article 1 thing it's another...
