Well, we did, it just requires functional legislative and judicial branches, which we no longer have
Edit: Y’all, accountability ≠ jail or death. The US Legislature and Supreme Court have reined in presidential power for literally the entire existence of the US. Even during the first Trump Admin this happened. What’s happening now is a total abdication of the separation of powers
Oh yeah? Give me an real concrete example of a president getting hold accountable in the usa. By accountability I don’t just mean impeachement but real consequences like jail
It’s not full accountability, but Reagan Nixon resigned because he was going to be impeached and removed. The failure was not convicting him of a crime. Still some level of accountability, but not enough.

“Fun” (read: nauseating) fact! We now have Fox News because Roger Ales said “If we had a friendly media Nixon would never have had to resign.” He then went on to start Fox News with the devils rotten semen Murdock
He was right! Fox News now keeps the Republican party completely unaccountable by keeping the population in an alternate reality news space…
It’s not accoutability at all , it doesn’t prevent mistakes to happen just look at how more much worse Trump is in the second term after being impeached. This is the dirrect results of what I critisize
My brother in Christ, you are confusing Richard Nixon with Ronald Reagan. Nixon resigned. Reagan was wildly popular while implementing policies that have fucked over America for nearly half a decade now.

Jfk was assassinated. Trump had an assassination attempt. Lincoln had an assassination.
Did you mean accountable legally? Not an agitator from the far right, or unknown agitator in JFK’s case.
Yes I mean legally

It absolutely is a small amount of accountability. If it wasn’t, he would have finished his term.

You’re right, it was a long day in the office and my brain is fried. Don’t gotta be a dick about it.
Wasn’t trying to be a dick, pard. Apologies I came off that way. Hope you have a relaxing evening!
You were not a dick about it at all imo
Jail? No, never.
We do kill them occasionally. Would be nice if it was for good reasons.
Some for of punishment is required when you do the level of bullshit he has done.
No argument here. My response was to the idea that the US has never had any form of accountability for presidents, which is just not true.
