Hes gonna get impeached but he aint getting removed so it makes the whole thing pointless. It gives Trump what he wants. He gets to play the victim card again so he can bitch & moan about how hes treated unfairly

Also polling with independents for impeachment aint looking so hot right now. The left doesnt understand that they need independents in swing states to beat Trump. Impeachment might play well to the far left base but no so much for independents

Possibly, but not as much as Trump's dipshit trade war will harm him.

The problem is that independents by and large, and anyone who doesn't think Trump has abused the power of his office regarding Ukraine, are idiots.

Independents aren't going to randomly "feel bad" for Trump being justifiably impeached. As for "playing victim", he's been doing that since 2016.

Not Impeaching is what would kill Democrats, as that would basically be saying "Everything Trump did was fine". Staying silent is little different from approval.

Trump isn't getting removed because the GOP doesn't have the stones, but at the very least it will go down in the history books who defended Trump.

That used to be the case. Now its debatable. The RCP average shows that more people do not favor impeachment/removal, and if you want to argue against that, you need to resort to the whole use this survey but not that survey.

May I point out that you made a topic just yesterday about how the Politics board didn't agree with you on this subject and you came here and whined, calling them "an echo chamber for the left"?

With that out of the way, we don't impeach presidents as a move for political gain. We impeach presidents because we believe and would like the opportunity to establish that they are unfit for office.

So, we have a moral and legal imperative to impeach. Not impeaching shows that the entire government truly is completely useless at the job it has set out to do. Impeachment in this case will more than likely show that one very specific aspect of our government, the Republican bloc of the Senate, is the real issue of uselessness.

Who among voters will look at the situation of a president being impeached and being acquitted by a clearly biased Republican bloc of Senate and say "well, I didn't vote for Trump before, but I guess I gotta vote for him now"?

Which would mean there is a percentage of respondents who want him to be impeached but not removed. Those are probably the people that think it will be good for him.

but unless you have a source, theres no point in discussing it further. Was it just one poll?

Bluebomber, answer me this.

Are you secretly a Trump supporter, or just a coward?

Here's the thing. Your argument seems to be "Don't do the right thing, because it may not be immediately beneficial".

You're saying not only that there is "no point" in Impeaching Trump because Mitch will bail him our, but also trying to say that "Independents will feel bad and vote for him in 2020" despite that?

What do you think would happen if we just ignored all the things Trump has done, and waited until 2020 to try to kick Mitch out?

In the best light, you are suggesting to ignore an evil because of political inconvenience. That is how evil continues on.

And you want us to just ignore all the problems with Trump til then... conveniently when he'll be up for re-election as well.

You know that everyone can see through what you're doing, right? It's not subtle.

I can just see the forest through the trees. Trump has gotten away with too much already because the gop lets him get off scot free. Trump is a symptom and Mitch is the virus

I have no faith in the voter base after 2016. Call me a cynic or a pessimist but I dont believe most voters give a shit about his crimes. They only care about what affects their wallet

In a rational world the actions of the republicans and their clear refusial to follow the rules should back fire on them.

Sadly we don't live in a rational world. So yeah this will somehow hurt the democrats more.
