Last I checked this is a democracy.

The people have a right to review and appraise the performance of their elected officials.

I doubt anything will happen in the next few years to force out Mr Trump from office, but if it were to happen that could only be because of some serious malfeasance.

In any case, Mr Pence would replace him and everything would go on. Like his political positions or not, Mr Pence is not generally involved in the behind the scenes activity that is under scrutiny.

The country is not coming apart.

Impeachment won't happen unless Trump becomes very unpopular across the political spectrum. If it gets to impeachment, yeah the hardcore Trumpies will be mad, but the vast majority of Americans will be so sick of him by then that they will cheer for it.

I'm going to quote another line from my all time favorite movie.... Wall Street.


You are walking around blind and without a cane.


You think the behavior we've seen since Nov. 8th is normal and sustainable????

Trump's behavior since Nov 8? No, not normal.

As others have said, there's a system in place. If he's impeached, Pence steps in. If they invoke the 25th amendment because trump's unstable, Pence steps in. These safeguards are there for a reason.

Yes, the evidence against the Obama administration is piling up rapidly.

Obama probably secretly wiretapped a computer server and phone lines in Trump Tower right before the election last year.

Not good for Obama if this is true.

We survived Nixon and all his nonsense. We survived Reagan and the Iran-Contra scandal.

We will survive this.

Quit referencing "there is so much hate."

Maybe most don't "hate" him but they see a very dishonest, secretive administration that's worrisome. Why must it always be about hate. Don't you think that Trump and his cronies might have a little to do with this unrest directed at him?

When people point out that Donald Trump is a bad person, a bad leader, a self-promoter, and a habitual liar, "Hillary is too!!!!!" is a poor defense.

Suppose I agree that Hillary also sucks and should be locked in a dungeon. Then what? Are you capable of having a rational conversation about Trump's flaws, or are we at a standstill because I took away your signature move?

Nope. These people here worship Trump and think he's the second coming of Jesus. He can do no wrong, thus any criticism is all the fault of Trump haters, not Trump's fault.
