It’s unlikely.

It's amazing how they can vote on this but not on Medicare for all

'Ultimately most of the Political-Elite/Media/Left preferred to allow some of the major problems facing the Republic to go unanswered, rather than let some else gain the credit for dealing with them' This makes the Political-Elite/Media/Left moral & bankrupt cowards.

I really hope they can get it done this time.

...the end of democracy.

They will impeach but will not get a two thirds majority in the senate and even if they do they then have to have a second vote on whether to ban him from running for office again will never get up

Cool.

'To continue on this path, I think it's causing tremendous danger to our country, and it's causing tremendous anger,' Mr Trump said. So he's literally threatening congress to not impeach him.

Guys this is good news. Never support a dickhead!

No leader should be able to do this and get away with it. auspol

Bring it on

Silly

And fail a second time.

Word has it McConnell is going to flip on the sun turtle.
