Richmond is one of the poorest cities of its size in California, a condition exacerbated in no small part by the large amount of money it pays out to public employees. Yet instead of overhauling this obvious problem in the public sector, the city council decided to waste time voting to pass a resolution expressing support for efforts to “investigate” President Trump for conflicts of interest and potentially impeach him:
“However, there is no evidence that Trump has benefited from conflicts of interest, or that he has done anything illegal to justify the “high crimes and misdemeanors” standard for impeachment. The Emoluments Clause argument is also thought by many constitutional scholars and legal analysts to be very weak.
Donald Trump has been something of an obsession for Richmond politicians. In 2015, the mayor blamed Trump for inciting a hate crime against a local mosque, even though the suspect had praised Hillary Clinton in social media.”

Richmond is the sixth-poorest large city in the state, and has the highest public employee salary burden, according to a nonpartisan report issued last year. The report documented exorbitant salaries paid to local officials, such as $560,000 in total salary and benefits to the local fire chief.

Yaaawwwwnnnn ……
Cant fix stupid , california has too many followers and not enough independent thinkers so they can’t even rationally think out anything. They know that their elected officials representing them are democrats but can’t put two and two together and figure out they are doing nothing to help them. They just believe them when they push the blame even though it makes no sense at all. California I thinks its time you put the pipe and your drink down a minuite and use your own brain and get the facts and hopefully save your state before its too late
Soon to go under
Sixth place in poverty, but first place in stupidity being as citizens can’t and don’t vote to impeach the president.
This has been coming in California for years from the Demoncraps in Power, but now these idiots would have you believe that this too is Trump’s fault. Talk about morons…
LMAO!!! They didn’t win the election , what in the hell makes them think they can impeach the PRESIDENT based on their feelings??????
So,guess these people have never read the Constitution….they sure as$#%&!@*know nothing about the impeachment process….
More Calif. dreaming
California has been headed to the dumpster for many, many years because it has continually voted on Anti-America demoncraps, and you want to wait a year to blame it all on Trump? You just can’t fix stupid, but you can get it to keep voting for demoncraps to further erode your state.
California is doomed.I am from the state of Jefferson.
