Joe Biden calls for Trump to be impeached
[NYPOST] Former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz KidBiden  ...The former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect to be found in the World's Greatest Deliberative Body...said for the first time Wednesday that President Trump should be impeached ‐ and that the commander-in-chief "has indicted himself" and believes the entire US government can be used for his own political and personal needs. "With his words and his actions, President Trump has indicted himself by obstructing justice, refusing to comply with the congressional inquiry. He’s also convicted himself in full view of the world and the American people," the 2020 Democratic candidate said during a campaign speech in Rochester, New Hampshire. "Donald Trump ...Oh, noze! Not him!... has violated his oath of office, betrayed this nation and committed impeachable acts. To preserve our Constitution, our democracy, our basic integrity, he should be impeached," he said to loud applause. Biden, whom Trump has accused of "corruption" and demeaned as "Sleepy Joe," then said that what Trump could do if left in office was concerning. "Impeachment isn’t only about what the president’s done. It’s about the threat the president poses to the nation if allowed to remain in office," he said. "One thing about this president is absolutely clear and I don’t think anyone can contradict this, he has seen no limits to his power regardless of what the Constitution says. He believes the entire United States government can be corrupted into furthering his personal political needs," Biden said.
