1. We already have one.

It's called impeachment.

3. That law has been amended.

And "rendered" irrelevant.

5. Apparently the US has been through a situation similar to this in the

past. John Rothman on KGO radio had an author on his program VERY EARLY Sun AM EST. His book was about Calvin Coolidge, and all the similarities to today. Coolidge was elected by a very controversial vote in "FLORIDA"!

By the time he was close to leaving office, his ratings were in the low 20's and people were saying thinks like "Just give me the chance to stab him in the eye!"

I can't recall all the details they spoke about. I was 4AM here, and I was not very wide awake! But the similarities were astonishing!!!!!

FWIW, the Country did survive, and we'll survive Shrub too.
