Clinton got impeached and stayed president. We need something that will force him out of the presidency.

chumps won't be so high, they are already lower than his inauguration.

Clinton had an affair, chump has so many corruption issues, business dealings, and russian connections that will come out in an impeachment hearing. chump could try and stay, but their may be to much pressure to resign.

We'll see what happens, but doubtful chumps approval rating will go UP after impeachment hearings like Clintons did.

personally I do not think an affair with another adult was something to impeach someone for ( yes it was a shitty thing to do.) I think that was personal and between him and Hillary not the entire country. If it had been a child that would had been an entirely different story. Now, why did Clinton's ratings go up after the hearings. To be honest I did not follow it closely because as I said I did not think it was any of my business and it in no way effected his ability to lead our country.

Granted, the perjury was in regard to the affair, but still . . . Perjury about anything is a pretty serious matter.

and would not shut up. By comparison, in this clip he's practically subdued. Definitely not as confident. His talking points were so sad he probably doesn't even believe them.

When I see him on a panel. He's awful. Does he get paid for his drivel? Kaley McEnany is the other tool that I just can't tolerate. She's a disaster.

Trump, Pence, & Ryan are going to be simultaneously impeached. A DEAL will be made with Hatch to name Hillary Clinton Vice President, then Hatch will resign, and PRESIDENT HILLARY!!!!! I read it on DU (multiple times,) so it must be true!!!

Trump won the electoral college and it would be impossible to prove enough fraudulent votes to overturn the election. Any attempt to finagle a way to install Clinton as president would certainly appear to be a coup by a losing party. Sorry to burst your bubble. We're stuck with a Republican president until at least 2020.
