His base has already given him 5 million dollars to fight this and the number is climbing it's political suicide for a republican to come out against him,too, so what's the point of Dems impeaching if he's gonna serve out his term anyway like Clinton?

There's literally nothing to even get in trouble over. Like are some of yall kidding me? Lol with the way every president since Woodrow Wilson just bypasses the Constitution and law to do whatever the fuck they want, and to start mad wars without congressional approval. All the good shit y'all don't care about. This is what's damning and impeachable? Lmao. It shows some real bias. Like damn it's Donald Trump and y'all can't beat him on policy? You gotta find some weak illegitimate reasons to get him out? I'm sorry that's pretty fucking embarrassing.

He could murder a guy and Congress will never get the 2/3 majority from the Senate to kick him out, no matter what.

So, they can start an impeachment but at best it could be just to submarine the rest of his term in hopes to nerf his ability to do anything more. Though this kinda happens naturally to the last year of most presidents so it feels like it's not even worth it.

In the end, it just makes sure Congress wastes more time rather than doing something constructive but apparently that's what their base prefers since Hatred of Trump is their own political goal at the moment.

Lol with the way every president since Woodrow Wilson just bypasses the Constitution and law to do whatever the fuck they want, and to start mad wars without congressional approval.

That's technically not illegal by government bylaws. Corruption is. I don't think it's a big deal either but that's the technicality there.

Dude he asked a foreign entity for info on a political opponent and offered military protection as recompense.

That's quite literally illegal.

Republicans in senate won't vote to boot him even though he EASILY deserves to be booted out for his actions.

I can't imagine much happening that would convince them to get rid of him. If he turned out to be soliciting minors for sex then that would PROBABLY get the republicans to get rid of him.

....Is what I would have said 3 years ago, before republicans defended Roy Moore.

The Hunter Biden allegations, if true, show that Obama being impeached absolutely did not happen so this statement is already false.

I'd be stunned if anyone is ever impeached. Both Clinton and Johnson very clearly violated laws with zero debate on their guilt and still weren't voted out.

If Eric Holder can get away with Fast and Furious (and keep his job, no less), I'm pretty sure any high-level political entity is immune from serious political repercussions.

Yes, but the US government literally giving weapons to Mexican cartels and those cartels literally killing US citizens is a bit much.

I would say the lack of accountability held on Eric Holder was astonishing, but frankly it's par for the course when it comes to politics.

People saying Republicans in the Senate would never vote to remove Trump are forgetting history, for 1 (Nixon, they would have removed him had he not resigned), and for 2 that the Republican Party has to survive after Trump. Whether that after is a year from now or 5, I imagine they will have to start shifting at some point. It's definitely a long shot, but if his presidency ever comes close to legitimately threatening the future of the party they'll ditch him.

I think the Dems honestly believe he's going to win re-election.

If they didn't, they'd just let him finish his term and blow him away during the campaign trail.

Nixon didn't have supporters that effectively hijacked the republican party in fact, even back then I think he only resigned because he knew Ford would pardon him and that the republicans of back then may not have voted to convict him but the negative fallout from it would be in the paper for months where as with the pardon it was quick, quiet and over with.

I don't think I've seen anyone say that, but I'm sure it's coming once the Redhats realize this isn't going away

Nixon had rabid supporters, still does to this day. Roger Stone has the dudes face on his back for goodness sake. And it's not like Trump supporters are gonna sit out an election when their media machine is constantly putting out anti-left fear mongering, let alone vote for a Democrat. Not saying it's likely that he gets removed, but it's not impossible. We're only a few days into this, who knows how bad it could get.

Obama withheld millitary protection from a country till they conducted espionage on a political rival before the 2012 election?

The only thing Obama did was ask your wife to leave you, which is not an impeachable offense iirc

Of course there's a very real chance he gets reelected given the continued existence of the Electoral College and voter suppression efforts being undertaken by the GOP in states country-wide
