The real issue is whether the hard-core Trump base would accept the rule of law..if Congress tossed Trump out of office?
Very similar to the hard-core demo base not accepting the legally elected president.

If I was a citizen of Cambridge I would be disgusted with the city council of wasting time and looking like idiots. The city has no legal authority but some how think they are sending a powerful message lol

My opinion is that it's more likely tRump will call it quits before he would ever submit to impeachment.

He'll spin it as "the media and the Dems have conspired against me!"

His Trumplings will, to the end of their days, repeat that line.

Worse than Watergate.

My opinion is that it is unfortunate that Democrats continue with the sour grapes behavior, and that it will bite them in the butt and assure a win for Trump or Pence in 2020.

Seriously, I realize there is handful of liberals that try to keep the candle burning for Hillary Clinton, but at this point, it is just embarrassing.

The rattling of the liberals gets louder as Trump continues to show that he will deliver on his promises to the best of his abilities considering that some of the congress people are still pouting over their loss.

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for Trump to be impeached, you'll be turning that "green with envy" blue!

Those of us who were around during Watergate/Nixon remember how that went down, and the parallels to this current mess. To the end, Nixon fought it, made speeches, and tried to keep his job. Then, as quickly as it began, it ended, and he simply saw the handwriting on the wall and quit.

This sorry tale of Trump being in this office is going to take some very interesting twists and turns, over the next few weeks or months. Getting a President fired is not a one day situation, it takes time to build a strong case and get all the Congressmen on board. The process is very much beginning, now it will simply take time to wrap it up.

Trump is NOT going to go quietly. His YUGE ego will be fractured, and no one has ever fired him before. Of course, everyone, except himself, will be to blame........that is a given, and his supporters will cry foul, but this is what needs done to start healing the country. We have never had a Dictator before, and we ain't starting now.

So what? A Republican replaced Nixon. Even had an aircraft carrier named after him. People are still stupid enough to vote Republican.

I agree with you. Trump might not have wanted to actually win, but after winning and experiencing a bit of time as POTUS, I believe there are things he likes about being POTUS. He really wouldn't want to cave and leave, but the size of his ego influencing not wanting to submit to impeachment would override the stubbornness re not wanting to quit if ever faced with that choice.
