You can't pardon an impeached person, according to the Constitution jmowreader Jan 2020 #42

Yes, you can StarfishSaver Jan 2020 #46

This gets really confusing at times with the overlap in vocabulary. Pacifist Patriot Jan 2020 #60

Indeed. A pardon is a judicial term while impeachment is a political one. Pacifist Patriot Jan 2020 #59

Riddle me this. What if Pence refuses to take the oath claiming the Senate could not remove? Zolorp Jan 2020 #34

All hell would certainly break loose at that point gristy Jan 2020 #41

I bet he will leave if security grabs him by the back of the neck yuiyoshida Jan 2020 #27

The second the Senate removes him, he doesn't have a security detail jmowreader Jan 2020 #45

He would still have a detail, but it wouldn't be a presidential detail StarfishSaver Jan 2020 #47

Quick question: does a removed president rate a security detail? jmowreader Jan 2020 #48

Yes StarfishSaver Jan 2020 #49
