    - DTM and on the list! - Krusty Mar 27, 13:46 6
      - There's nothing unique about Nathan's. It's just a steamed hot dog (and the hot dog is roughly equivalent to an Oscar Meyer weiner). It's fine and - pmb Mar 27, 13:54 5
        
        It's not steamed. It's cooked on a flat grill. You might be thinking of something else because the Nathan's dog tastes so much better than - Krusty Mar 27, 14:19 4
        
        Huh. It's been a really long time since I've had one, but I thought they were steamed. They opened one in Chicago like 25 years ago with much - pmb Mar 27, 14:40 2
        
        I don't think I've had a Vienna beef dog. I'll pass on all those toppings, just brown mustard. -- nm - Krusty Mar 27, 14:58 1

Al Capone went to jail for tax evasion. Clinton got nailed for being evasive, not because he got a blow job. Trump... he's got a lot going for him. - Mop Mar 27, 13:14 14

    - ooh, comma! "other high crimes and misdemeanors" or "other high crimes, and misdemeanors"? -- nm - Max Mar 27, 13:29 3
      - "High crimes and misdemeanors" is taken as a single term, and was generally understood to mean an abuse of authority or official misconduct - znufrii, definitely not 40 Mar 27, 13:34 2
        
        Yup. And "high" referred to the status of the official, not the status of the crime. - ReluctantCynic Mar 27, 13:42 1
        
        or the state of inebriation! -- nm - Max Mar 27, 13:49
    - right, "misdemeanors" provides so much room it's not much guidance. I just don't know if there's something more procedural in the US Code. -- nm - Max Mar 27, 13:28 3
      - I'd love for him to be convicted for a misdemeanor and then try to get away with still being President. Hey, it was only larceny, not *grand* larceny! -- nm - Mop Mar 27, 13:38
