a crime is not really what we need.
There's already enough material to impeach Trump many times over but the Repubs have to decide to do it.
Our goal must be to flip the opinion of enough Trump supporters that the GOP gets scared and impeaches him.
That's the only way we can get out of this mess.
Yes, Trumpets convicted of crimes would be nice but trials would take a long, long time. Probably years.
We can't wait that long.
All the scandals, illegal or not, have to be constantly publicized so Trump's reputation is destroyed among his supporters.
That's what we really need.
