NO IMPEACHMENT FOR CUOMO, HE IS "NO LONGER IN OFFICE": HOW ABOUT TRUMP?

ICHEOKU says the New York State Assembly said that it is suspending or rather dropping the impeachment investigation against Governor Andrew Cuomo because it is no longer necessary to impeach a governor who has resigned his office and that the legislature does not have authority to impeach an official who no longer holds office. According to them, the constitution of New York State bars impeaching a governor who has already resigned from office; and the language of the constitution did not contemplate impeachment when removal from office is not the central issue for determination. 

Therefore, the impeachment inquiry against Governor Andrew Cuomo is no longer needed and will be dropped because the purpose of impeachment is "to determine whether or not he should remain in office", a matter which is now moot and overtaken by his resignation. The Democrats running the place now tells us that New York State's constitution does not allow the legislature to impeach an elected official who is no longer in office. Yet, the same people want us to believe that the United States of America's constitution is somewhat different from New York State's constitution in matters of impeachment and "specifically" allows the impeachment of a president who is no longer in office. Definitely interesting. 

ICHEOKU says, it is yet another clear example of the double standards of the Democratic Party's liberal left, making it up as they go, and as it suits their objective. According to Senator Kennedy of Louisiana, these people will have no standard at all if it wasn't for double standards. Now, that Governor Andrew Cuomo has resigned his office, probably all his sins are immaculately washed away and everything is now honky dory. But President Donald John Trump served out his first term in office and was no longer in office when the same Democratic Party still impeached him just because they can (could). It is very sad to watch the Democratic Party invent, choose and pick, and selectively apply laws as it suits their political machination. 

As every unbiased person knows, impeachment operates only as a disqualification tool against an official from remaining in office and also in more egregious cases, sometimes bans the said official from holding any future office. It therefore necessary follows that once an office holder who is impeachment-targeted is no longer in office, either by resignation or completion of term, that impeachment loses its sting. This is right with Governor Andrew Cuomo as presently correctly determined by the New York legislature; and it was also right with then President Donald John Trump. The only difference was that the Democratic Party decided to weaponize impeachment against the later just to damage him politically. It is wrong to use laws for political purposes and/or as a means to specifically achieve a desired end, regardless. 

Anyway, ICHEOKU says will stay tuned to see how the Cuomo scandal eventually finally and fully resolves itself. It is likely that his resignation will be the magic silver bullet which will take care of all business since the primary objective of the gang up against him was to prevent him from challenging Joe Biden in the Democratic Party's primaries in 2024. They have harpooned him and his recovering from the grave wound will be difficult, if not impossible. Now that the book of impeachment, suspended or forever, has been closed, lets see if all other intended actions against him will be similarly put on ice, shelved. It is the Democratic Party machine and they do not show mercy in dispensing their poisonous brew. Governor Andrew Cuomo drank it and have gone into coma and the prognosis is not good.
