While fights persist around the legalization of marijuana, Americans continue to drink legal alcohol. As Homer Simpson once said Heres to alcohol, the reason for and the solution to all of lifes problems. A new survey shows that while many Americans love to drink, most would give up the sweet enjoyments of alcohol if it meant impeaching Donald Trump.
Nearly 73 percent of Democrats and 17 percent of Republicans said they would abstain from alcohol for the rest of their lives if they could see the official political process begin to remove Trump, according to a Detox.net survey of 1,013 men and women nationwide. The latest data set showing support for Trumps impeachmentan exhaustive political process that includes no definite promise of his removalcomes at a time when multiple Democratic lawmakers are drafting articles of impeachment and at some point could bring them to the floor of Congress.
Meanwhile, more than 30 percent of Republicans surveyed said theyd quit drinking in order to have the media stop writing negative articles about Trump, compared to 6.5 percent of Democrats.

Trump is a blight on the presidency and our political system, the likes of which have never been seen. The rest are far right-wing ideologues, but Trump is a malignant narcissist who makes the entire country worse by his example.
