2. This all takes me back to my youth!

The Watergate Hearings guaranteed my lifelong commitment to the Democratic Party!

And my aversion to all things Republican!

At least 75% of America never drank the Kool-Aid with this sociopath in the White House.

Maybe all this will make the insanity unfolding before us once again as the birth of another generation of Yellowdog Democrats!

If not, we're stuck with him full term.

Even if he is impeached the GOP Senate probably wouldn't vote to remove.

We'll see it when we believe it.

Also takes OUR actions, voices, letters, calls,
emails, protests. ..
But I BELIEVE.

When it becomes obvious to the GOP their majorities in the House and Senate are in grave jeopardy with Trump in the White House, they will have a nice quiet "come to Jesus" moment with the bastard and he'll resign.

...and/or Republicans decide they have a significantly-better chance of winning/holding onto power with President Pence as their standard-bearer.

Add in a small percentage for the Cabinet declaring him unfit under the Twenty-fifth Amendment.

I say no impeachment, let alone conviction, but I'd bet that he won't serve his full term.

After they've pulled the rug out from under us, they will impeach, blame all the resulting problems on him, and proclaim themselves saviors.

That will never happen.

Now if we were to win the House in 2018 it could happen.
but that's it.
