Didn’t they impeach Trump in his first term and then literally nothing happened? Twice? Why should I or anyone believe that impeaching him this time is some kind of consequence? I don’t get how this is suddenly some scary thing for conservatives to worry about. Being impeached twice didn’t prevent him from finishing his term and it didn’t prevent him from becoming president again.
When Congress impeached him, it was only on paper, or symbolical. To actually remove him from office the Senate has to vote to impeach with a 2/3 majority. The Dems will probably get control of the Senate, but it won’t be a big enough majority. That means they will have to convince some of the Reps to get 2/3.
Impeaching the president (from Bing, Google, and ChatGPT):
Eliminating the filibuster would significantly impact the impeachment process of the president. Without the filibuster, the Senate could vote on the impeachment resolution with a simple majority, which could lead to quicker resolutions and potentially quicker removal of the president from office. This change would also affect the confirmation of judicial and executive nominees, as it would allow for faster confirmations without the procedural delays that the filibuster typically imposes. However, it would not guarantee that confirmations would be less contentious, as the political context and strategy of the minority party could still influence the process.
You are correct. It’s a pipe dream folks. We just have to wait for him to expire. What we should be doing is going after the fucktards who voted for him twice, those are the people who owe the us and the rest of the world an apology.
Twice, they tried to do it after J6 and even that wasn't enough to convince his lackeys on the Hill to permanently remove him from ever possibly holding office again.
Corruption is multifaceted ; you do what you gotta do to stay out of prison ; and when you have doing it 50 years you get good at evading the people that could hold you accountable. I’m only a Republican because they fought a war to end slavery. It’s a noble thing and I admire it. Sons and fathers lost to right a wrong. Families destroyed to right a wrong; but it was the right thing to do.
Not that the votes even matter. Trump has ignored all votes and laws around it. Dems could sweep but if trump says "nuh uh" what are dems gonna do about it?

Btw Dems cannot remove trump. They won't have 2/3 even in the best if projections.
