More Liberal Nonsense: LA City Council Votes to Impeach President Trump Because They Don’t Like Him

Democrats are still adjusting to Hillary Clinton’s shellacking in the November election.

They’re having a rough time.

Today the LA City Council voted to impeach President Trump.
Maybe they ought to figure out how to pay for all of those illegal kids instead.

News LA reported:

The Los Angeles City Council passed a resolution Friday stating that President Donald Trump should be investigated for any high crime or misdemeanor sufficient to warrant impeachment proceedings.

The resolution calls for the city’s 2017-18 federal legislative program to include support for any legislative action to investigate whether Trump has violated the Foreign Emoluments Clause of the U.S. Constitution or committed any other high crime or misdemeanor.

Since taking office, Trump has been criticized by ethics experts for not divesting himself of his vast real estate empire, which could be in violation of a provision in the Constitution barring government officials from accepting gifts or benefits from foreign leaders or foreign states.

“If he is not going to come clean and show the American people that his hands are clean of potentially illegal foreign money in investments, then we must demand that Congress use their power to investigate the situation,” said Councilman Bob Blumenfield, who introduced the resolution.

“With this resolution, the city of Los Angeles calls on our Congress members and senators for the good of the country to investigate Trump’s international finances, and make sure that he is actually working on behalf of the American people and not his own pocketbook.”
