This explains the difference between the law that governed Ken Star and what governed Mueller.Thanks Jackie, I wasn't aware of any real legal differences or if Mueller was just passing the buck.

Always keep in mind, a President can be impeached for no other reason than 51 % of the House doesn't like him. It is a political function.
However, getting a conviction in the Senate is another matter.
You are correct. The President stretches the truth on a daily basis. That is between him and voters as long as he does not commit the crime of purgery, which is not telling the truth while under oath. Originally Posted by Jackie S

I think Amash may have the right idea, all though he would never publicly admit it. Impeach trump now. Have more time for damage control and allow more time for senate Republicans to win back the narrative as well. Congress will impeach Trump, it's just a matter of when it will be the most advantageous to do it. Now is better than later for Republicans.
