"Stephanopoulos also challenged Castro on questions about the constitutionality of convicting a president who has already left office. Some Members of Congress, like Sen. Tom Cotton, and other legal scholars and experts have raised that concern.

"Are you concerned that they may be able to find that this is not constitutional, this trial?" Stephanopoulos asked Castro.

"I don't believe so. In fact, one of the other purposes of impeachment in this case is to make sure that the -- that President Trump is not able to run for federal office again, that he's not able to seek the presidency," Castro said. "The reason for that is that somebody who incited a riot, an attempted coup of the United States government should not be president again. So it's not just about making sure that there are consequences to his behavior."

The commie socialist marxist commie Democrats are afraid of Trump...even after committing vote fraud to steal an election and overthrow a dukly elected President...which is treason, sedition or some similar act.

Article 1 Section 3:
Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.

The language of the impeachment clause contained in the Constitution's legislative article cannot be divided into either / or. It has to be both removal from office and disqualification. Once POTUS is a private citizen, the clause cannot be legally adhered to. The Senate trying a private citizen is a Bill of Attainder, which is specifically prohibited in the Constitution. Of course that won't stop Schumer, because he defends the Constitution - you know -  by pissing on it.

That is the maximal limit, but they need not occur together, but disqualification cannot occur without removal.

High probability that the capitol storming was an inside job and if they don't get a speedy trial and removal, the evidence is going to pile up against them.

Even by the "official certified" count, Biden only won the EC because of 42,918 votes TOTAL from AZ(10,457) GA(11,779) and WI(20,682)
That's how little cheating it took to rig this election.

The left is hanging their hat on the history books showing Congress impeached a cabinet secretary back in the 1800s after he resigned from office, specifically to avoid his own impeachment.

Riddle me this Bat Man. How does Alcee Hastings get elected to Congress after his impeachment and removal from the Federal Bench?

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/09/16/democrat-rep-alcee-hastings-one-of-eight-federal-judges-impeached-and-convicted-by-u-s-senate/

Just three years after his impeachment, conviction, and removal from the federal bench, Hastings was elected in November 1992 as a Democrat to represent Florida's 23rd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. He has subsequently been re-elected to 13 additional terms. Due to redistricting, he now represents Florida's 20th Congressional District.

It was entirely possible for him to order every department to have their files pertaining to XY and Z on his desk for review by this date, and if they failed to do so he could fire the head of the department that failed to do so for cause.

He also has authority to seize the air waves to declare an emergency.  He should have had regular story time with the American people on the MSM every Friday for a while now going over the swamps dirty laundry.  If the media refused to carry it law enforcement could get involved to force the issue.

There was a LOT more he could have done.  He just failed to do so.

exactly! think the commies wouldn't pull out an even more openly fraudulent election? they got a completely controlled, media supported, and court suppressing election process.

stick a fork in it, the Constitution is no longer an "equal protection under the law" document. as a matter of course, it is not even a legal document referenced in courts.

Federal Judgeship isn't a Congressional seat for starters. Nor is an impeachment a Felony.

Hell, Nixon could've run again for office had he wanted to. Can't remember which one, but one former president ran for & got elected Senator after he got out of POTUS office.

Not to mention Hastings is black & could literally do anything he wanted if he played the race card. Read about his impeachment, he was incredibly corrupt.

The house impeaches.  The senate debates and votes remove from office or not.  If voted to remove from office some one can make motion to prevent from holding future office if the motion passes, they debate and vote again.

So, removed by impeachment is not automatically preventing from holding future office, there is a lot more has to happen.

to prevent the pol running for office again they have to be impeached on a two-step process. the impeachment only voted on one count instead of both. And that's how he could continue his government sponsored employment.

I've seen him condemn rioters and threaten jail time for anyone harming the structures where they protest. I have not found anywhere him calling for violence, or inciting a riot. Yet this is the words they always use. But its ok for Chris cuomo to say protests don't have to be peaceful.
