Why hasn't Trump been impeached for ongoing violations of the Emoluments Clause?

6. Do you really feel it's appropriate for members of an internet blog....

to determine what actions are impeachable, particularly considering there's no precedence in past Congressional action or even in case law for members of Congress to draw on for guidance?

There's nothing I find in the Constitution's articles on impeachment that mentions emoluments violations. What it does include is actions of bribery by foreign entities. Do you really think Congress during an impeachment trial could prove without doubt that a president or other government employee was bribed say, by Russia? Republicans choose their co-conspirators carefully.

In addition, no rational person would believe that a Rethug-majority Senate would convict based on emoluments violations. They are the party of laissez-faire everything - you want basic healthcare? Tough shit. You upset 'cause billionaires pay no taxes? Tough shit. Upset because a president makes money off foreign visitors? Tough shit. That's the Republican way of life.

Even though Trump and his family's actions are extremely repugnant to any good citizen, I think our Democratic leadership knows Republicans would make a circus of any attempt to impeach based on emoluments.

Are you aware that there's currently three court cases against the Trumps relating to these issues?
