If the evidence is there and we impeach Trump ...

If the evidence is there and we impeach Trump and the Republicans in the Senate refuse to convict him it will inure to our benefit. The fear of a successful backlash is bunk. America, save the dead enders, will be with us. That is all.

This is about the rule of law - did the Con commit one or more crimes?
Lock him up. Lock them all up.

TrumPutin should receive mercy equal to the amount he has given to the tear-gassed mothers and children.

Hmm. Lock them all up in dog kennel cages inside cells, then send them daily tear gas canisters until SCOTUS gets around to ruling it's cruel or unusual.

If the House impeaches, but the Senate fails to convict, more voters will show up at the polls in 2020:

a. The Senate's failure to convict will motivate more Democratic voters to vote in 2020.

b. Trump will use his survival of an impeachment to rally his base, motivating more Trump voters to vote in 2020.

c. Independents in general will more than likely side with the Democrats in 2020.
