Let Drumpf stay in power his whole term.

Everyday as the Drumpf cabal sinks into the quagmire it has created, it shows the voters a few things. The Repuke party
will do ANYTHING to hold onto power. For them, IT'S IDEOLOGY OVER EVERYTHING ELSE. TO HELL WITH PATRIOTISM. They built this disaster and hopefully the electorate will go to the polls in '18 and throw some of the conservanazis OUT.

If Drumpf can stay in, he's going to be swinging in between one scandal to another.

Far better to have a loose cannon failing and flailing and destroying the Republican Party than to have an orthodox and compliant Pence destroying his party and the country along with it.

but I don't think this is how it would play out. I can understand how delightful it would be if he reached 0% support and took the GOP with him. The more likely scenario would be a continuous onslaught of EOs and stupid tweets that deeply offend and alienate us from our allies, all with the backing of our congress. He's in too prominent a position, and there is a very real danger of getting us into war.

Any time is potentially too much, but the damage he'll do to the GOP is worth some time.

Not that I or any other Democrat has any power over the situation. Only the Republicans can impeach him.
