” If the democrats take back the House, Trump WILL be impeached.”

Not a chance. Too many dems have criticized Mueller and the deranged who scream impeachment.

Won’t happen.

Really?

I don’t.

To democrats, it’s ALL about the optics. Too many of them want to oppose and complain, and whatever it takes.

Seriously, none of us here, as political junkies at one level or another, should be so naïve as to believe politicians do not crave power above all else, for what it gives them ($$$), and democrats especially. The ends justifies the means should be their motto.

The thing about impeachment, is it is nothing without a conviction. Do not confuse impeachment—an indictment—with conviction, which happens in the Senate. I do not think they can convict Trump in the Senate, but the democrats—and I have seen/heard them say this explicitly— want pay back for the Clinton impeachment at least.

They will impeach Trump knowing they can’t convict, just because they can. It puts an asterisk on his presidency that they desperately want to have.

Impeachment was supposed to be rare as hen’s teeth, but in the modern age I fear it becoming the norm every time the presidency is controlled by one party and the House by the other. Political theater.

The folks NOT like us, who only watch the evening news or CNN, and are not political junkies, are most susceptible to this. The conclusion is the House would never impeach IF the president hadn’t done anything wrong. Ergo, he did.

And yes, I hope I am wrong in the case of Pres. Trump.
