He’s been impeached twice. It does nothing. It’s just a political process.
Edit: yeah, to clarify, impeachment is just the process of levying charges against the president. Then the senate acts as the judge/jury and will either convict and/or sentence the president based on the charges. Trump has been credibly accused of crimes (aka impeached) twice already, but as the other commenters mentioned, he won’t get convicted because his complicit senate will “dismiss the case.”
They would only consider actually doing it if there was an armed angry mob looking to kill anyone responsible for the problems they were facing. Then if they could push Trump in front of themselves and scream "it's all his fault" they would. Until the angry mob forms, not a chance they do a darn thing.
Sadly, the MAGA supports will never come to the conclusions it's Trumps fault. They will continue to finger point at anything and everything that isn't trump or the GOP.
These people still fail to see how much Republicans have invested themselves into Trump and the Kool-aid.
As soon as you understand that to them "Trump wrong" = "I'm wrong"/"I have been tricked" then it's easy to see that they'll literally never fault Trump until he's twenty years in the rearview mirror and they can George Bush Jr him
They refuse to because in their eye's if it's Trump's fault then it's also their fault, because they supported him, even though they're just victims like the rest of us.
I've been lowkey hoping this administration just fucks shit up BAD, real bad. The US wasn't going in a good direction period, this might just be the catalyst it needed to 1. Get someone like Bernie or AOC into positions of power and 2. Keep republicans away for a while so maybe we can get something nice enough set up that some right leaning voters flip.
Just like a lot of them needed to see this and feel the pain from an administration like this, they also need to see what the other side looks like. If they have both so many will flip. I live in rural Missouri, not all Trump voters are MAGA cultists.
I think they’re all putting themselves above country to be honest. There’s no way you sell your soul as hard as this bunch of clowns without the promise of huge amounts of money and power.
They attach themselves to the party now but a lot of them were 2 time Obama voters. So you’re right. It’s just populist bullshit. The funny thing is, they’ll use socialism as a buzzword, not knowing that their protectionist, populist nonsense is essentially the same thing.
Because conviction has to occur in the Senate. In their infinite wisdom, the American people gave Republicans both Houses of Congress, and Senate control is probably not at risk for several years.
