Impeach President Trump for what? They have absolutely no reason to.

Impeaching Trump will go just as well as impeaching Clinton did.

Unless you drive a guy’s approval down into the 20’s like they did to Nixon it’s a fool’s errand.

“As Dems Weigh Impeachment, GOP Leaders Regret Pursing Clinton”

Someone took away her purse?

Is that like pantsing someone?

Anyway, YAWN.

Allow me to translate headline...

Spineless quisling soyboy Republicans who failed to jail the corrupt, will now cower before them after allowing another election to be stolen.

There, much more truthful.

You folks are smart enough to know they’ll do it anyway. Calmer heads will prevail they’re smart but you can’t underestimate the Michael Moores/Diniro’s in the base. Just look at Booker accusing the Ga. Republican of wanting steal the already won election. And this guy may run for POTUS?

It saddens me that even our leaders at the time like Gingrich are unaware of things that happened which I as a common consumer of news am aware of.
Trent Lott and the republicans folded under media pressure and did not conduct a real trial in the senate they panicked and did not permit the appearance of any witnesses.
I’m not saying Clinton would have been convicted but the American people would have been educated about his crimes and in his case he did commit actual crimes as president as well as immoral acts.

I’m sure they’ll regret the upcoming civil conflict festivities too.

Indeed, there has to be a crime of some sort.

Impeach? ON WHAT CHARGE?

If they do it will drive his approval numbers up. I love watching heads explode.

Oh, I believe they are gonna do it. And it will blow-up in their faces like an exploding cigar.

There are people in the Democrat Party who knows it’s a fools errand, but you are right, they won’t be able to resist pressure from their foaming-at-the-mouth moonbat base.

Republicans are perpetually stupid they allowed Clinton to really denigrate the office of president by letting him commit crimes in office. Now they are not going to fully stand up for their own president and they are going to regret having gone after Clinton who is a reprobate and his wife is satan herself.
Only republicans could regret having prosecuted a rapist in the middle of the me too movement.

Can you imagine the impeachment trial in the US Senate? Who is going to the Congressmen/prosecutors? Nadler, Waters, Cummings?

That's what all of the investigations are for.

Republicans really don’t get it. Democrats have been treating rapist Clinton as a great old boy and republicans have been joining them with that pat on the back for a person as reprehensible as Bill Clinton. Now democrats will have no problem manufacturing crimes with which to impeach Trump and republicans will once again panic and go along.

Who is going to lead to prosecution in the senate? Romney of course. He thinks hes going to be president after he destroys trump.

For anything they want.

They just need to convince enough of the public that what they say is impeachable, really is.

I used to joke back in the late 90’s that they can impeach simply if they don’t like the guys haircut.

I could have been a bit prescient back then

Impeachment is a political option, not a legal one. It does not have a definition of what crimes must be, they can be defined by the House and tried by the Senate.

Um the US Senate votes. The impeachment trial prosecutors have to be U S House representatives. I doubt Romney would vote to convict after just having won his seat.
