At least two-thirds of the GOP controlled US Senate must agree to impeach a president.

Senate GOP vows to quickly quash any impeachment charges
BY ALEXANDER BOLTON

GOP senators say that if the House passes articles of impeachment against President Trump they will quickly quash them in the Senate, where Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has broad authority to set the parameters of a trial.

While McConnell is required to act on articles of impeachment, which require 67 votes — or a two-thirds majority — to convict the president, he and his Republican colleagues have the power to set the rules and ensure the briefest of trials.

“I think it would be disposed of very quickly,” said Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/445512-senate-gop-pledges-to-quickly-quash-any-trump-impeachment-charges

Pelosi and other Democrats in the House of Representatives know what they are doing, as Trump continues to dig his own grave!


on edit: Also a failed impeachment would consolidate Trump's voter base. You know what that means, correct? "Poor Trump being bullied and railroaded by those nasty, tree-hugging Democrats" etc.

Gosh, if it was just on video in front of a hundred people, then maybe we start to talk about it.

Just wait some more...almost there

impeachment proceedings to get the MAXIMUM effect of sinking tRumpty Dumb-ty's 2020 chances?


Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

Should have added the thing

The House Judiciary committee should hold a vote Monday morning to start formal impeachment hearings.

Thanks for the laugh!!

No matter what happens with Trump. And especially if he happens to “win” the next election. It could be the last hope any of us have.

except a failed impeachment attempt that consolidates his voter base.

her orders. "The judge had told prosecutors they needed to make public redacted sections of the report that pertained to Flynn by today."

They don't just get to arbitrarily countermand the court and say that they don't believe they need to hand over other recording transcripts involving Flynn. Neener, neener, neener!

DOJ heads will be handed out in this one.

Then while they are there have the bailiffs arrest and jail them for contempt. Stir, mix, and repeat with the next set that shows up.

It'll occupy the moron's ego and "mind" until he's removed or defeated.

It's the right thing to do. Stop appeasement now!

If you had read the complete news article, you would have seen this paragraph:

"Overall, the voice mail highlights a call that special counsel Robert Mueller investigated as potential obstruction of justice by the President. Dowd had made the call on November 22, 2017, after Flynn's team said it could no longer communicate with the White House, just before Flynn pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate in Mueller's investigation."
