Obstruction of justice. Profiting from the office of the presidency. Accepting bribes. Collusion with a foreign power. General Racketeering. Some of these are open and shut, some of these would be harder to prove, but all justify his removal.

You read too much left wing propaganda. He did not obstruct justice. Every president profits from the office in one way or another. How has he profited? What bribes did he accept? There is no proof that Trump colluded with any foreign power, although you could say that all presidents collude with foreign powers. What racketeering? Even the rabid left hasn't used that word yet.

Well then, why is he not impeached?

Because Republicans in the House and Senate are choosing to look the other way and pretend these crimes aren't happening. So long as Republicans are the Jury they will not convict a fellow Republican as they know doing so will doom their entire party.

He very clearly did.

President's are payed a salary by the Tax payers and that is fine, but virtually every president in Modern history has agreed to put their assets into a blind trust to insure that they are not compromised and biased. Basically the President has so much info available to him that insider trading is a cake walk.

There's also the fact that his businesses are directly benefiting from his presidency. He sells access to himself at his resorts. His daughter had her book plugged by an official office.

Largely because he controls who is running the investigation into his crimes and he fires everyone that could uncover said proof. Both his former national security advisor(who had to resign after 3 weeks), his Attorney General, and numerous members of his cabinet have been found leaving Russian contacts off their application for security clearance. If you seriously think all these people within his administration are working with Russia, but Trump himself has nothing to do with it you are delusional. Trump is incompetent, but not that incompetent.

Trump's casino's have been linked to the Mob, and to money laundering.

I never realized that, in the eyes of right wingers, there is a type of Russian secret agent that is acceptable for the most powerful position in the US intelligence system

That argument is even sillier than Hawkeyes claim that it is common sense for the US President to truth the Russians more than Americans

how obtuse must one be to fail to recognize the dangers of appointing a Russian agent to the top of the USs national security system?

Which is why I said that his inability to see why it's a problem is a reflection on him.

How did he obstruct justice? There were investigations and there are still investigations. Please prove that Trump has been enriched just from being president. Do you have proof that he has done insider trading since being president? Hillary Clinton was selling access to the presidency through the Clinton foundation and if she would have become president these people would have had access. The fact that the Clinton foundation dried up like a well after her loss is proof that access was being bought. Is there any proof that Trump himself or even his aides colluded with the Russians in any way to influence the election? Not one microscopic bit. Zero. Zip. Notta. Why wasn't Trump thrown in jail before running for the presidency if he was in the mob and doing money laundering? You are nothing but part of the rabid left who is so hell bent on getting him out of office that you have to make a bunch of stuff up in a lame attempt to do so.

Secret agent?

If national security means nothing to you then that's where you stand. Fine.
 
People who think that Trump should be impeached should be aware that Mike Pence would replace him, should Trump be removed from office.
 
Setting aside all the bogus fake news media silliness, there have not yet been any grounds on which to impeach the president.

If some want to impeach the president, then far more solid evidence needs to be demonstrated, but it hasn't as of yet.

Any calls for impeachment without this solid evidence is premature, to say the least.
