People need to stop talking about impeaching Donald Trump from office….
It ain’t gonna happen…
The next election is only 18 months away….
Democrats have a 41 seat majority in the US house…
They CAN vote to charge , or impeach President Donald J. Trump ….
They can use the 11 or so reason’s Special Counsel Robert Mueller gave them….
They will most assuredly get the simple majority in the House…
But?
That’s as far as things are gonna get….
Why?
Simple math….
Republicans have a majority in the US Senate which would be the jury for a Trump impeachment charge….
To find President Trump guilty and to expel him from office?
There must be a ‘Super Majority’ in the Senate…
That would equal a two thirds majority , which has been mentioned at around 67 US Senator’s votes…
THAT would require around 20 Republican Senators to vote to REMOVE Republican President Donald Trump from office….
Donald Trump’s support among Republican voters ranges from a high of 85% to a low of 75%…..
Trump has twice vetoed Congress’s votes against his actions…
First on the Border National Emergency….
Second on the Yemen war support….
Congress was NOT able to overturn those two veto’s….
For the last two years Republicans in both Houses of Congress have griped about Trump’s chaotic admin and its policies….
But?
They, the Republicans , have seldom NOT supported Trump….
There is NO WAY 20 Republican Senator’s are gonna stand up and risk their day jobs to get rid of the leader of their party, even with Vice President Mike pence on standby….
Democrats do NOT have the votes…..
Furthermore?
Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are WELL aware of what happened to Republicans after they failed to convict Bill Clinton after charging him with a crime …..Clinton’s approval numbers sky rocketed after the Senate failed to convict him…
There is no reason why the act of impeaching Trump by Democrats to make their base and the media Happy….Wouldn’t possibly make a second Donald Trump term a lock….
Again?
Nadler, Pelosi and Schumer aren’t THAT stupid….
They will NOT seek to impeach Donald Trump….
But?
They ARE going to make sure that Trump suffers the political hurt of a thousand cuts….
As the more than dozen investigations continue to dig into the very things Trump has sought to hide from the public….
And keep Trump worried in his quiet moments that if he doesn’t win a second term?
He could be ‘fucked’....
