Sedition
Sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that tends toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent toward, or resistance against, established authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel. A seditionist is one who engages in or promotes the interest of sedition.

Grounds for immediate impeachment? Asking for a friend.

LVT, you might not ever get it but I will keep trying. We the people are split on what is the "established authority". Liberals believe it to be Trump authoritarianism and there is a ton of proof. This proof would take more than a couple paragraphs :) However Conservatives believe it to be Liberal democrats who want to take away their religious rights, property rights, gun rights, white male rights and a proud heritage. Unfortunately we the people are not united enough on a consensus of where the established authority and abuse of power exists. I keep trying to get you to understand that we have to bridge the gap between democrats and republicans otherwise face unprecedented consequences of what happens when we are this divided. The further divided we are the further we get from democracy and if the wrong person or group abuses power then we the people have no ability to correct or balance. Donald J. Trump's entire life has been abusive to women, minorities, our economic system, our political system, the middle class and every hard working blue collar Americans. Yet he has convinced almost half of we the people that he has a mandate from God himself to rid those disrespectful elite democrats from effecting their lives any more. I am as frustrated as any democrat, any liberal or anyone that uses common sense to figure out where the abuse of power is coming from but half of "us" are convinced that Trump is a protector of our constitutional rights. I certainly am not able to persuade them to look at the science, or facts or to just open their eyes. Their eyes are wide shut. The only thing I know to get them to open their eyes is thru their ears. Respectful dialogue and kind words. If we let our anger and frustration get the best of us then that won't happen. Those that want to ram the science and facts down their throat ain't workin and is probably making it worse. Somehow we have to reset this divisiveness in the way we communicate. Or suffer the consequences of what it means to lose our democracy just because my principles are always right and the other side is always wrong. Social change may not happen if do not first protect our democracy. Trust me I am not preaching for you to change your principles but rather to understand how important it is that we form a better method of communication with those that have conflicting principles. Impeachment would make our division even worse than it is.
 
I don't think it matters if the results are close. Trump aint leaving. It will go to the supreme court and he will appear to have the votes. It may come down to one person voting for with the constitution instead of ideology.

@mputnal I reject your statement that we only have 2 ideologies. Perhaps you meant 2 parties' ideologies. Even then they can be a lot of gray area inside the tents.

Yes two political party ideologies. There use to be gray area but the republicans changed that with the Tea Party. Now there is little to no bipartisan politics in our Executive and Legislative branches. Not even in our Judicial Branch where the Constitution is "interpreted" with one of two ideologies. There is only black and white. Liberal vs Conservative. Democrat vs Republican. Us against them. We are having trouble even accepting who wins elections. There should be more than two ideologies, more than two political parties and more than two people running for political office. But the number is two. We are split in "two". Sometimes I wonder if politics has changed our brain into reasoning that we can not have both liberal and conservative thought.

Lets say that Biden wins the popular vote and the electoral vote by a significant number. If Trump does not concede and he was able to appoint another conservative SCJ then "we the people" will have to make a choice. Do we concede that our democracy is over?

Your mind is extremely narrow. You are trying to cram a wide spectrum of possible ideologies into a 2 party system. You need some political science 101.

It is now politics. No science :)

And the number is 2! Not 101

Extremely narrow is exactly what the two political parties want.

My mind fits neither political party. I am a member of the human race...
