Have they not learn anything from the impeachment of President Bill Clinton?

All I hear from liberals is impeachment but do they even know what it takes to remove a sitting president?

It is mathematically impossible to get rid of the President with the current legislative make-up.

Even with the 2018 mid-term elections where 33 Democrat seats are up for re-election, the chances of getting all 33 seats and the 8 GOP seats necessary to re-take the Senate is like almost impossible.

The establishment in both parties are uninterested in an impeachment even Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Shumer thinks the idea by his constituents are not realistic.

So anytime I hear someone talk about impeachment, I think they have personal issues with Trump and still can't get over the fact Clinton was the flawed candidate.

Yes, of course you hear the word impeachment from some democrats but the majority isn't interested in doing that. I don't think one party should control the government though because there are no checks and balances. So I do hope democrats take control. I would say the same thing if democrats controlled the government.

It starts with a personality disorder. Impeachment is only a sign of the underlying mental condition requiring professional treatment.

If you saw the action by the Dems, they gave into Trump during the Govt shutdown talks because their sponsors told them not to disrupt the stock markets. So how is there checks and balance? They all work for big businesses.

It's a rallying cry for Democrats because they got nothing else.

Thirty four House Republicans have decided not to run, 11 of them on committee chairs. Democrats need only 24 House seats to take control and don't necessarily need win the Senate as there may be some (possibly the ~20 or so votes needed) GOP senators who understand their duty is their constituents and the Constitution, not to Trump. It is not impossible.

It's the sliver of hope that gives them a reason to live.

Just another right wing myth. Anytime the right tells what the left believes they lie. The only way Trump could ever be impeached is by the Republicans and unless it was something bad enough all agreed I expect the Democrats would block it. Better Trump then Pence.

Did you read your post before you hit send or did you mean it to sound like this? Just wondering.
