He did say the impeachment of the Ukranian President was legal, didn't he?
But what does their Constitution say about Impeachment?
constitutionally unable to carry out his duties
Would that be considered a crime, or treason? It defintely isn't one of the reasons for impeachment. Now, if they could only prove that he ordered those snipers to fire on the crowds....
So how many voted for impeachment, out of the total?
