And it was bad for him. The effect wasn't as immediate as many, including myself, would have hoped, but Mueller himself has later claimed that he himself cannot charge, convict, hold a trial or draft articles of impeachment but the Democrats may try to set that process in motion based on the extensive report. A lot of the points made by the report actually made it into the impeachment case. And whaddaya know, Trump was actually impeached. In my opinion it took way too long because some of the more corporate, establishment-minded Dems were too hesitant to consider it right away, but they did have a change of heart in the end. If your "articles are handed" over is to mean handed over to the Senate (if you're referring to the Bloomberg
op-ed that's been regurgitated by Fox News later), I'm afraid I have to disappoint you. The House has the
full authority over the impeachment vote. The Senate then is in charge of the
trial. Impeachment and conviction/removal are not one and the same. Hence, he very much was impeached and his trial is now pending.
As for why you "would not" post his: Considering your political leanings, it just struck me as odd, that's all.
Yeah, I did not reply to the whole diatribe of cherrypicked self-quotations. Neither do I want to spend all my time on that, nor do I have the time right row now. Make of it what you will. And I'm sure you will.
