disappeared, the story was an 'AW Shucks...someone hit the wrong button' moment, and the story went away literally overnight. We all let it go. HRC's emails are dead and buried and need to leave the lexicon of political discourse as well. Just bc ignorant people dont remember, or want to forget, doesnt mean it didnt happen. She however, loves the country. Far cry from the cabal of gop thats come around since the newt gingriches of the world 'served' in congress.

I don't see a Republican Senate voting to impeach him. They don't even speak up against him. What would happen if they voted to impeach but didn't get the necessary votes? Trump would go after each and every one of them, with barrels blazing and out to destroy their careers. I guess they can talk about impeachment behind the scenes to see if they have the votes for it.

Trump will never voluntarily leave, though. He'd have to be forced out in some way...whether giving him a choice where he loses face and is humiliated, or he can feign an illness and leave for that reason. I don' see the Repubs forcing him out, though. These are not ethical, standup Repubs. They're unethical, corrupt, and most don't care about the country or its citizens or laws. Just money. Greed.
