Do you think…
  • Trump is not impeached, in spite of continual Democrat threats to do so
  • Impeachment proceedings begin but are never concluded due to something else (you say what below)
  • Trump is impeached and force to resign in disgrace from the presidency

As with all matters of such vital importance, we must consult discobot.

@discobot fortune , will Trump be impeached?
 
None of the above. I don’t see why a lot of the Democrats are so angry at president Trump, some of their presidents were not exactly perfect. I’m not a fan of him, I’m just pointing out what I see to be a bit of hypocrisy.
 
It depends how the obstruction of justice worry (or non-worry if that’s your bent) plays out. If he is ultimately cleared, barring misdeeds in the future, he won’t be impeached.
 
I am praying the democrats will tire of their vengeful efforts to impeach Trump and
the country can begin to heal.
At this point, I don’t see any evidence to impeach Trump.
 
If the old CAF ‘smilie’ fails (as it does occasionally): 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
 
It’s not just democrats looking at an impeachable offense by Trump. Republican’s are also looking.

Either way, until he’s broken a law, it’s just wishful thinking.

If the Democrats retake the House, then I do think Trump will be impeached, but I doubt he would be convicted by 2/3 of the Senate unless there is a conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other blatant High Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Republicans in the Senate will convict Trump if a trial finds him to be guilty of something. But so far, there is nothing that can be blatantly considered a High Crime or Misdemeanor.
 
As much as I dislike him, I haven’t seen evidence of an impeachable offense.
 
I think it is highly unlikely that he’ll be removed unless he’s done something so egregious that it causes an uproar that even his own party cannot fail to condemn, such as Nixon did.

I do not think there is any chance he will resign, however. There isn’t much he could do that would surprise me, but that would surprise me.

I think he’d have to start behaving in an extremely bizarre way in public before the 25th Amendment is ever invoked to remove him. The public sentiment that he has lost his grip would have to be overwhelming. I don’t mean tweeting “consensual” when he actually means “consequential.” I mean one side of his face drooping or suffering from hallucinations in public. It would have to be irrefutable, something even his wife and daughter say indicates that he has sadly and utterly lost his capacity to serve. Honestly, he’d have to be to the point that he could be legally committed against his will. It would have to be that obvious. The potential civil repercussions of removing him under the 25th Amendment when there is any doubt it is appropriate would be that catastrophic.

No, there has not been evidence produced yet. I don’t think enough of the public will accept that talking about getting rid of Mr. Comey would qualify, since too many would consider it a mistake–that is, that he didn’t realize he was exceeding his power–rather than a deliberate obstruction of justice. Many in the public would refuse to accept the interpretation that he WAS obstructing justice by firing someone he has the power to fire.

The public would have to be convinced that (a) removing Mr. Comey or attempting to stop Mr Sessions from recusing himself were obstructions of justice and (b) Mr. Trump fully understood that and attempted to obstruct justice, anyway. I don’t think the Senate will remove him if they don’t think the majority of the public will accept that he did something that the public considers an unusually serious criminal offense.

I would be surprised if sometime over the next three years if proceedings were not started. Really surprised. They would most likely go nowhere, certainly not as far as it did with Bill Clinton.

This call for impeachment is partisan. I do not doubt the House will impeach if they gain a majority, which I believe they will. The bigger issue is why. There needs to be a specific crime committed. Whether anything will be revealed in the future is not something I care to even speculate about. Who knows?
