Mikesez's justifications for impeachment listed above are hyperbolic, but prodding for reaction is all he has. However, the basic premise of his argument is correct. Impeaching presidents simply for ineptness would mean every single president since Washington would be eligible. Biden is not smart and he's surrounded himself with people who are more concerned with how people identify themselves than actual governing.  Stupid and incompetent does not rise to the level of high crimes and misdemeanors.

Let's not perpetuate emotive childish democrat irrationality. If Republicans believe they are fundamentally better for the country, why would they copy the idiotic antics of the opposing party?

I said the same thing a few posts earlier. I feel the same way, but I won't remain silent about the left's double standards. Mikesez is actively supporting Trump's impeachment while simultaneously calling for others to be reasonable about Biden's actions. It would be one thing if it was just his opinion and he was an outlier, but he isn't. He speaks what the left tells him to think. I can't stand this kind of hypocrisy. This is why we end up with people on the right who are beginning to lean into their emotions.
