Democrats Aiming for More Impeachments 1. It's hard to imagine a weaker or more disgraceful case than the last round, but stay tuned. Every single Democrat in the Senate voted for a charge so comically weak that it could exist only under the blanket of protection deployed by a virulently dishonest national media. The House charged the president and his team with obstructing Congress because they did not like that the White House's team asserted executive privilege, something Bill Clinton did 14 times. It is hard to conceive of a charge that could be any weaker, although trying to impeach the president for removing traitorous staff members might clear that low bar.
Executive privilege is a foundational protection built into U.S. separation of powers. We have the Judicial Branch to decide these questions. House Democrats were so sure that they had an ironclad case that they rushed to...not respond to the White House's legal arguments.
