Because if he is, first off, it'll be a partisan farce like Bill Clinton's impeachment was.
Second, we'll end up with President Pence or President Ryan.
No, best thing we can do is vote OUT anyone we can starting in December with making sure Roy Moore doesn't win.

(20,142 posts)A 2/3 majority in the Senate to convict? No fucking way. I certainly want Mueller to get to the bottom of things, but I really don't think impeachment is going to happen. I would rather flip the House and the Senate, bigly, in 2018 and then kick his sorry ass in 2020.

(3,847 posts)he won't have to be tackled to stop a nuclear war. That is a big one for me. If the Slug gets impeached we will have a great chance to take back the Congress and try to being back the President Obama's EO's and make them law.

(30,481 posts)I dont want Trump to go through the possible months long Senate and House investigation and impeachment of Trump. I dont want the country to see Republican forced to vote one of their own out in one of the most humiliating ways possible. I dont want to watch the last bit of Republican political clout dry up throughout the process.
Every time I have seen the Pence argument come out the reality of what would have to happen for Trump to be impeached is ignored. Completely.

(8,695 posts)It seems to me that some people are Trump supporters. By saying you don't want him impeached then you're supporting Trumptrash.

(100,038 posts)Protecting the courts and our judicial system should be our number one priority! If Pence or Ryan were president, and they had a complicit Congress and SCOTUS, there's no telling what kind of damage they could do to our civil rights. That's what the Heritage Foundation terrorists want.

(2,785 posts)important than who might be president if Trump is impeached and removed from office. His campaign stole the election. Trump losing re-election would only mean he got away with stealing the election. That's not justice politicians lose re-election bids all the time without being under investigation for stealing elections. It is normal for politicians to lose re-election bids. That is normal it is not normal for politicians to get away with conspiring with foreign Governments to steal elections.
Democrats have a moral obligation to pursue justice and that means impeachment. If they don't at least make an effort of it after all the facts come out then they don't deserve to be in office.

(68,456 posts)I hate Pence and Ryan. In order for the rule of law to mean anything, Trump must go...but he needs to be convicted in the Senate...if you don't have the numbers than don't impeach.
