In which case he was unfit to hold office and should've been removed.
That's the Reagan dilemma - he either lied, and should have been
impeached and removed, or he was too addlepated to function, and
should have been removed. But he had great popularity, so he
remained in office. Thus with Willy J: whatever his crimes [and
he wasn't impeached for his really vile offenses], it's impolitic to
try to oust him. Business booms, peace reigns, and it's his watch.
We murkans don't really care what our presidents do, as long as the
economy is good and we're not at war. Cousin Jimmy was damn near a
saint, but inflation soared and the Ayatollah prevailed, and Jimmy was
a goner. Bush won a ?great? war but the economy sucked while he
vacationed, so he hit the shitpile of political luzers. Nixon could
have gotten away with building concentration camps and otherwise
shitting on the constitution, if OPEC hadn't blown the economy away.
When times are good, the Prez can do anything, pork anybody, commit
whatever crime they want. When times are bad, angels are crucified.
