"What can I do?" If you are asking yourself this question I have a suggestion.

Each of us has a friend, family member or co-worker who is just not as "into" politics as we are. They are likely only vaguely aware of the reasons we want to impeach Trump. We need to tell them in simple easy-to-understand terms why we consider his impeachment essential to the survival of our democracy.

How about: "Trump has admitted offering to trade anti-tank rockets to the Ukraine if they would give him 'dirt' on Joe Biden AND, in a separate matter, told the Russians their interference in our 2016 election was ok with him---'no big deal'".

The first is a felony; the second is AT LEAST traitorous.
