Josephus, did you read the document you linked to? Trump's test results are not on record, and Trump was a transfer student so the very high entry requirements did not apply to him.

Dear Josephus,

I'm tickled pink you linked to that particular meme. It was completely debunked by Snopes.

http://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-trumps-intelligence-quotient/

But further than that it reveals much about your own intelligence. My God mate, how on earth have you read that article without a single drop of comprehension or critique?

Are you really that lacking in normative intelligence that not a single red flag came up?

I thought runner was the most enamoured of OLO posters toward Trump. Now I am not so sure. You fetish for the orange buffoon is on that kind of level.

Dear Shadow Minister,

.

Article 1, Section 3 of the JUS Constitution states :

« The Senate shall have the sole power to try all impeachments. When sitting for that purpose, they shall be on oath or affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no person shall be convicted without the concurrence of two thirds of the members present.

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. »

Article 2, Section 4 states :

« The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. »

The incumbent Chief Justice is John Roberts who was appointed by George W. Bush in 2005. Roberts is one of 14 Catholic justices—out of 114 justices—in the history of the Supreme Court.

In November 2018, the Associated Press approached Roberts for comment after President Donald Trump described a jurist who ruled against his asylum policy as an "Obama judge". In response, Roberts asserted that "We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges. What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them." Robert's remarks were widely interpreted as a rebuke of President Trump's comments.

And, as I am sure you are aware, only Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton were impeached in 1868 and 1999 respectively but were acquitted by the Senate and both served out the rest of their terms. Donald Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives in 2019.

So far, no president has ever been removed from office through impeachment. Richard Nixon arguably came the closest, but he resigned midway through the impeachment process.

Dear Armchair Critic,

.

Here is Trump’s approval index history as per Rasmussen Reports :

46% approve – 53% disapprove (as at 27/12/2019) :

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/trump_administration/trump_approval_index_history
.

A CNN poll back in September 2019 found that 47% of Americans approved of the impeachment of President Trump – including an increasing number of republicans, especially young republicans :

.

Despite all that, it seems the Republican Senators are deeply committed to defending Trump, no matter what he does.

He certainly does not leave anybody indifferent. Either one is for him or against him. He is undoubtedly the most divisive president the United States has ever had.

His style and method probably have as much to do with it as his politics. He is like a bull in a china shop – uncouth, rude, ill-mannered and vulgar – like a typical lower-class American from the Midwest. To cap it all off, he is a narcissistic megalomaniac who lies constantly, flagrantly and blatantly, without the slightest qualm – and accuses everybody else of doing the same. He is the champion of "fake news".

On the political side, he takes the money from badly needed social support for the poor, the sick, the handicapped, the uninsured, the uneducated and the homeless and uses it for increased military clout and for building a “Great Wall of China” along the Mexican border.

It is partly because he overturns the tables of the politically correct that much of Middle-Class-America applauds him and it is partly for that very same reason that the rest of America despises him.
