and you're counting on the republicans who don't like the president to do the right thing?Even if Dems get 60 seats in the Senate (needing a pickup of 13 seats), they could prevent a filibuster, but would still be 7 votes short of removing President Trump.in 2008 democrats held the senate at 59 and 60 seatscheck your math. What is 2/3 of 100?and they would have the votes with at least 4 republicansIt takes a 2/3 vote of the senate to remove a president if impeached by the house. Very unlikely to happen.I'm not too concerned about President Trump winning in 2020, my biggest concern is holding the Senate and taking back the house Trump can and should win but if Republicans don't take back the house and retain the Senate his win will be for nothing democrats will impeach and remove a very good president all because of politics
