Right down party lines with one RINO exception.
Bernie Sanders is listed as an Independent. How can he run for president as a democratic nominee?

The vote. Abuse of power. 48 guilty. 52 not guilty. Obstruction of congress. 47 guilty. 53 not guilty. Across party lines except for Romney. He voted guilty on the abuse of power but not guilty. It should be over but it won't be. They will continue to try to find grounds for his removal.
We can just hope that the GOP wins the house back so they can boot Pelosi off as speaker...

Beyond that, IMHO any sitting senator that is also running for president and voted guilty just implicated themselves in the same "crime" they accused President Trump of.....

I recall Trump was a donor to the Democratic party for many years, but still run as republican.

I had the same question. If he looses the nominee again he should run as a independent. That would take votes away from the dems. Win win.

I recall Trump was a donor to the Democratic party for many years, but still run as republican. And Ronald Reagan was a Democrat in his earlier years but was a Republican when he threw his hat into the ring from presidential nomination. Bernie Sanders is holding office as an Independent even now as he campaigns for the Democrat nomination.

Does the Democratic Party have any rules for this kind of situations?
He should be running as an Independent.
Any of the Congressmen running, either House, shouldn't be allowed to vote. Since they don't have the personal morals or ethics to recuse themselves, a policy or rule needs to be implemented.

I'm putting this here as well becasue some may "miss it" (ha-frickin ha)elsewhere.
Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz, who will be part of President Trump’s impeachment legal defense team, pushed back against Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) statements that impeachment is forever by stating that impeachment “is only a grand jury presentment” and “disappears” upon acquittal, just like an indictment does if someone is acquitted at trial.

Yes the Democrats do have rules for this. The candidate may use the bathroom they identify as. If they know of course.

The democrats let him in their party caucus, so he DOESN'T split their vote as 3d party.
They deserve each other.

TRUMP CAN'T WIN COMPILATION, Pelosi is pretty definite on this. This is supposed to be funny but peoples predictions and attitudes show. https://youtu.be/G87UXIH8Lzo In some countries, including Canada, Mexico and the United States, the guarantee against being "twice put in jeopardy" is a constitutional right.

 Oh yes good meme Baldo
C-SPAN asked people to call in and give their opinions on the SOTU. What happened after that was brilliant. “I’m a Democrat, but I no longer will vote Democrat,” said one caller. “I think it’s outrageous that they sat there when all these good things are happening to our country and how much we love our country. And they looked like they hated our country…It’s outrageous and I will never vote Democrat again.” She went on to say that all her family voted for Hillary last time but this time they will never vote for a Democrat again. Maybe these people have the right idea.

Maybe these people have the right idea. Trump converted many Democrats the last election, I know, I talked to a number of them. However many voters thought of Trump as an unknown quantity and this was also the case with a lot of republicans who were suspicious. I was not one because I have followed him a bit for years. However now no one is uncertain about this guy unless you are hiding under a rock. He wakes up everyday with one thought and that is what can I do to make this country and it's citizens stronger, safer, wealthier, and best place on earth to live. I knew, just like with his companies and properties, he would be the nation's greatest cheerleader. He is now converting many more democrats who are pleased with his direction, and brought over the majority of republicans who were unsure and will now vote for him. His approval rating with republicans is the highest ever. And as enthusiastic as his supporters were 4 years ago, they are even more enthusiastic now because they know he works for them, and there are millions more of them. Around here his flags have been flying and a lot of people make their own billboards for their yards in some creative ways, something I have seen little of in any election I remember. Expect a landslide this fall and keep expecting the Dems to make even more absurd statements and stands, because their own internal polling is bearing my statements out.
