I say we need to impeach members of the new house if this attempt is made

What crime did Trump commit for which he should be impeached?

From the article.

The poll results come as Trump faces criminal investigations in both Washington, D.C., and New York related to whether his campaign coordinated with Russian officials and actors to help sway the 2016 presidential election.

At the same time, federal prosecutors implicated Trump earlier this month in a separate case related to payments made to two women to keep them quiet about affairs they say they had with him.

In a memo recommending a prison sentence for Trump’s former personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, federal prosecutors said Trump directed the payments to the two women to ward off a potential sex scandal as he sought the White House in 2016. Those payments, prosecutors argue, amounted to illegal contributions to the real estate mogul’s campaign. U.S. voters are near-evenly divided on whether the payments warrant impeachment, according to the Harvard CAPS/Harris poll.

Forty-nine percent of voters polled said they favor trying to impeach Trump over the allegations, while slightly more — 51 percent — said that doing so would return the country to 1998, when then-President Clinton faced impeachment proceedings on two charges related to an affair with Monica Lewinsky, a former White House intern.

They’re doing a good job of hiding the actual guts of the poll. I’ve not been able to find it yet, about which I am deeply disappointed. I was looking forward to ripping it to shreds.

At least we have a sample size, and as usual, it’s small, less than 1500. No information as to how subjects were selected or what questions were asked and how, and all the rest of the usual important data.

And they failed to report any confidence interval.

I agree, they hate Trump, enough to get to the 67 votes, with the Democrats on board, of course.

But it is going to take A LOT of evidence for them to vote that way - and the evidence has to also convince his base of the same. So, get back to me when Trump is under 25% support in the country, then I’ll begin to worry, but until he’s under 20%, he’s still safe.

Boy you got me but with 53 R senators and a super majority needed, i think we’re good, even with the usual weasels stabbing us in the back.

Article V ignorance is indeed properly understood as a failure that only crypto-liberals pine for.

The article quotes you provided, still don’t answer the question:

“What crime did Trump commit for which he should be impeached?”

The crimes pointed out, are NOT IMPEACHMENT-WORTHY.

I don’t want him impeached. I would merely censure him for past association with pedo-pervert Jeffrey Epstein.

Agreed that they are not impeachment-worthy, but that's not what those polled believe. This is going to be a long two years of fighting every piece of crap that the RATS throw against the wall because the media will relentlessly harp on and promote all of it to a sadly receptive public.

The President and Sarah Sanders cannot do it alone. He's going to need Republicans in both houses to fight for him at the top and in every committee and subcommittee, the same way the RATS find them. Not with the same tactics, but with the same ferocity and committment. He definitely needs his administration to have his back especially at DOJ where someone has to run all out of bubblegum in dealing with the southern district of NY office. And, of course, he needs us.

It still doesn't matter what they believe. If charges are not worthy of impeachment, then, end of story. Other than the propaganda that democrats use the charges for, it's all a waste of time and could actually backfire on them.
