Impeachment proceedings against Trump

Do I want impeachment proceedings to begin? No, I'd actually prefer that our country was run well and by people who are competent in their elected positions and who work to serve The People. This whole election cycle has been a mess of epic proportions on both sides and it's not healthy at all for our country. Do I want anyone "overthrown"? No, I want our justice system to faithfully be executed. An impeachment is an opportunity for our enemies to take advantage of, and for many to lose faith in our economy causing much hardship, and those are not things I cheer for in any way, shape, or form.

What I want is the truth, and justice to prevail from that truth. If our current President did indeed break the law, try to obstruct justice, or commit treason, I want the facts and our country to be safe from those who would do her harm. As I said in my OP, "We need to put country first, party second, and come together as one nation behind truth and justice, whatever that may be."

I am not inciting violence or "inflaming the radical base" with my posts, if you go back and read them carefully you'll see that I am not making any definitive claims one way or the other as to what has happened, I have stated I am waiting for the facts. I haven't made any urges for people to "take justice into their own hands", we have enough vigilantism and extremism in this country already to make me sick, we don't need any more. What we need are people who are rational, logical, patient, and willing to believe in and support our democratic processes. And that includes the media, who are our watchdogs. The evidence is being gathered, what can be reported on by the media is. If anyone merely believes what they read because it already supports their beliefs and biases, and will not consider opposing evidence or viewpoints, then they are as guilty as those they condemn for believing "fake news." Critical thinking is a requirement for all, not just one side or another.

It remains to be seen if Mr. Pence or any other elected officials are innocent of possible future charges, there is much in doubt at the moment and much yet to be discovered.
