UPI reports<\/a>: \u201cSteyer said corporations driven by profits are corrupting the U.S. political system. He blamed court decisions that have ruled that corporations are people, which leads to companies stopping progress and justice because it affects the bottom line. \u2018We\u2019ve got to take the corporate control out of our politics,\u2019 Steyer said. \u2018All of these issues go away when you take away the paid opposition from corporations who make trillions of extra dollars by controlling our political system.\u2019 He was also the first major Democrat to call<\/a> for President\u00a0Donald Trump\u00a0to be impeached<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n
Said Steyer\u00a0in the ad that launched his petition<\/a> to impeach Trump: \u201cHe\u2019 brought us to the brink of nuclear war, obstructed justice at the FBI, and in direct violation of the Constitution he\u2019s taken money from foreign governments and threatened to shut down news organizations that report the truth. If that isn\u2019t the case for impeaching and removing a dangerous president, then what has our government become? \u2026 A Republican Congress once impeached a president for far less.\u00a0And today, people in Congress and his own administration know that this president is a clear and present danger who is mentally unstable and armed with nuclear weapons. And they do nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
