Impeachment is not a popularity contest. It is a condition that unconscionable things have been done, and the Attorney General has reviewed the charges and found them to be baseless against the President.No chance Pelosi begins an inquiry and doesn’t push for impeachment as she would lose face. House will impeach and the Senate will not and the country will be extremely divided. Even more so than now.
Again there is no direct proof of bribery there is no high crime even Democrat and Constitution expert Dershowitz agrees.
Let the fun begin...
$400 million dollars in aid for Ukraine was suddenly held up by Trump on July 18, 2019. Then in the phone call to the Ukrainian President on July 25, 2019, Trumped asked for a favor, that Biden and his son be investigated.
The CIA whistleblower has also reported that the Ukrainians had to be "willing to play ball on Biden" in order to even get the July 25th phone call with Trump.
Its all there. Trump abused his power as President and neglected U.S. Foreign Policy and Defense Policy. He used the tools of the office of President to get a foreign entity to dig up dirt on a domestic political opponent going against him in the 2020 election. Its the President using the power of his office, to get a foreign entity to help him remain in power. Its all illegal.
Then there is the evidence that Trump and his advisors tried to hide all this stuff on a different computer server to keep it from getting out. So its not just abuse of power, but an attempt to cover up that abuse of power.
Trump will get impeached. Will see how many Republican Senators are willing to go down with Trump's sinking ship when they vote in the Senate. Right now it appears that Trump has the votes to survive in the Senate. That might not be the case in a couple of months. Only 21 Republican Senators need to switch sides to remove Trump.
Polls show at least half of the public is now for impeachment. Last week only a third were.
The Attorney General William Barr, and Rudy Giuliani may be guilty on these issues as well based on what has been learned so far. They should be getting lawyers.
There is nothing Trump can do if 218 House members vote to impeach. It then goes to the Senate, and if 67 Senators vote to remove, he is gone. That's all it takes. Its a numbers game now and how Representatives and Senators feel and think about what has happened.
Just 67. Why would any Republican Senator vote to impeach?
Because that don't want to support a President who is selling the country out to Russia, does not care about the security situation in Ukraine, and is willing to hold up military aid in order to get a foreign entity to dig up dirt on his political opponent. Its gross, anti-American, and dictatorial. Only a person who puts Party over Country would vote to support Trump.
I don't think Susan Collins will support Trump and I'm sure there will be other Republican Senators who will put their country before their party.
