    Yes, it is. He would be losing his elected position. He has not been proven guilty. We all suspect he is but that hasn’t been proven.

    No elected politician should be removed without due process.

    It is shocking how many pro-auth people there are here.

      His elected position is not a possession. Taking it away is not punishment.

        Ok buddy, sure it isn’t. What is it called when you face a negative outcome due to your potential wrongdoing? Oh yeah that’s called a punishment.
