Among the united states ‘ democrats are many who are hoping for a riksrättsprocess against Donald Trump. This requires, first, that the crimes or at least serious violations can be shown, but ultimately it is a political,.
(”treason, bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors”), but criminality of a president is guilty is in practice a function of who has the majority in congress. Impeachment takes place outside the court system. It is the house that accuses, and the senate, as acting judges.
in Order to draw a meaningful riksrättsprocess against the Trump is required to many of the president’s party is on the accusing side. No republicans have shown a few hints in that direction – until now:
The republican congressman Justin Amash from Michigan writes on Saturday in a series of posts on Twitter that Muellerrapporten, which examined the links between Russia and the Trumps of the campaign, plus some adjacent events, shows that Trump passed the threshold for activities that should suffice for riksrättsåtal. Had he not been president had he been charged, mean Amash:
”mueller’s report identifies several examples of conduct that meets all of the criteria on the lagtrots, and a person who is not a U.S. president would, without doubt, be prosecuted with such evidence as the basis.”

from most of their colleagues have read the whole report.
He draws four principal conclusions after reading Muellerrapporten:
• Attorney general Barr has, in his conclusions, deliberately distorted the report.
• President Trump has done things that are grounds for impeachment.
• Partipolariseringen has eroded the system of checks and balances.
• Get the congressmen have read the report.

He notes that the special form of the prosecution that an impeachment is not even requires that there is evidence of a crime before a prosecution is brought, but that it is sufficient that they have found that a high-level representative of the state indulged in ”reckless, abusive, corrupt or otherwise dishonest conduct”.
Justin Amash think like many who hesitate before the process of impeachment only to be taken to in case of extreme emergency, but the risk with the extreme partipolarisering that prevails is not that the congress takes to the tool too often, according to Amash, but so rarely that it ”stops working as a deterrent ‘ for a president.
against the sitting president. Recently, for example, he questioned the Trumps increased customs duties against China, and pointed out that the strikes against american consumers. Amash is considering to set up against Trump in next year’s elections as the libertarian candidate.
