There are plenty of things Trump should be sued, impeached, and prosecuted for: Daily violation of the Emoluments Clause, crimes against humanity (putting migrant children in brutal prison camps in worse conditions than convicted murderers), more crimes against humanity (supporting Saudi Arabia's genocide in Yemen), deliberately trying to undermine the Constitution in violation of the oath of office, etc.
I don't care who he had sex with. I don't care who he paid off. His sex life is irrelevant, I care that our country is under the control of a sociopath criminal with less understanding of constitutional law and geopolitics than your average 4th grader.

Of course it's not time. It's never time, not on its own. You make it time. If you're under fire in the no-man's land of WW1, you start digging a foxhole even if the ideal time would be when you *aren't* being bombarded, because once you wait for it to be 'time', other situations will need your attention, assuming you survive that long. If the fields aren't furrowed, plow them. If the iron is not hot, make it so. If society is not ready, change it.

It wasn't even about that. It was about the public comments he made about her after the story broke.
And is still making about her.

So you're challenging the judge's impartiality. That's a little because I don't know that the judge in question was appointed by trump and even if he was Article III judges can really only be removed with impeachment or assassination- they're pretty free from outside influences.Chan Island wrote:

No we've established that the statements in question are better characterized as allowable rhetorical hyperbole. Hence the ruling.
