Would submitting a criminal complaint against Trump and his administration too the ICC for war crimes be a waste of time?

    Being impeached is NOT the same as being removed from presidency. In fact, there have been 4 total impeachments in U.S history. None have lead to removal of office.

    I don't disagree with your message or tone. I just see people online say "He was impeached, and nothing happened".

    No, it did. He WAS impeached. That's what being impeached looks like. A little astrict on your presidency, and a seperate vote for removal of office. He was never voted out of office. But both astricts will remain there for the rest of history.

    There have been four attempts to impeach the president the first one failed.

    I guess you think this * thing is some sort of detriment. IF anything it will just assure that Trump will remain in our collective consciousness.

    The US has had many shit presidents who are by an large forgotten.

    All this * will do is ensure he is remembered…

    Trump is going to be remembered for a lot more than his impeachments, like it or not. Over the next hundred years, he will be the most studied of any president. Countless Masters and PhD theses will be written about him.

    The good news is that it will almost all be negative. There will be a few lame apologists, but nobody will take them seriously. The vast majority will be exposing his many crimes, uncovering and gathering evidence of his guilt. Most of his crimes will never go to court, but they will be established, proven, and recorded for all history. Trump's legacy will be strongly cemented as the worst president in history, and THAT'S what he will be remembered for.
