By the defense counsel’s flawed logic, if President Trump was impeached for “shooting someone on Fifth Avenue” he could not be removed for murder. That’s completely ludicrous. — PolitiTweet.org

A new low: First, the president’s counsel say that if he didn’t commit a crime, he can’t be removed. Now, they’re saying if he did commit a crime, but the crime is not precisely named in the articles (just described) he can’t be impeached. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2010, Judge Porteous was impeached for bribery, but the articles only said “he solicited & accepted things of value.” Just as w/Trump, the House managers described the crime; they did not use the word. ICYMI: The Senate unanimously convicted Porteous on the bribery article. — PolitiTweet.org
