Trump isn’t getting impeached

Just simmer down everyone. Take a look at the unlikely series of events that would have to unfold for Trump to be impeached.

1) Mueller would have to have some pretty clear cut evidence that Trump himself committed a crime. Evidence that Trump knew about a crime, our allowed a crime to happen isn’t going to cut it.

2) But say there is a video of Trump accepting a valise full of money from Putin, the Republican controlled House would have to file misconduct charges. They simply will not.

3) Say they do… the GOP controlled Senate would basically hold an impeachment trial. They simply will not.

4) Say they do…two-thirds of the senators must vote for conviction.. They aren’t going to do that. Fox News rules their world.

3) In the event the GOP controlled congress doesn’t do anything, the Democrats would have to win back control of congress. While there is a lot of anti-Trump energy crackling across the land, have Democrats really shown that ability to make the most of that energy? The Virginia results might suggest that they have, but Clinton won Virginia. Democrats would have to win in a great many places that Trump won last year.
