I would like to see a Democratic member of the United States House introduce a resolution to impeach

Trump on treason,bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors. I want all of the Democratic US House members including the ones who represent Republican leaning Congressional Districts to vote yes on impeachment. The Democratic US House members who vote no should face a primary challenge. We should target Republican US House members in purple/blue districts for defeat in the November General Election.
Regarding the US Senate
All 46 Democratic US Senators plus Bernie-VT and Angus-ME must vote to remove Trump from office.
Red State Democratic US Senators ie Donnelly-IN, McCaskill-MO,Tester-MT,Heitkamp-ND,Brown-OH,and Manchin-WV need to vote for Trump's removal or face a primary challenge.
The 19 Republican US Senators that need to be target for defeat if they vote to keep Trump in office is
Murkowski-AK
McCain-AZ
Flake-AZ
Gardner-CO
Rubio-FL
Isakson-GA
Perdue-GA
Young-IN
Grassley-IA
Ernst-IA
Cassidy-LA
Kennedy-LA
Collins-ME
Blunt-MO
Daines-MT
Heller-NV
Burr-NC
Tillis-NC
Portman-OH
Toomey-PA
Graham-SC
Scott-SC
Cornyn-TX
Cruz-TX
Johnson-WI

1. Name the specific crimes that amount to "treason,bribery and other high crimes and misdemeanors".

2. When the US Senate fails to Convict him, effectively "acquitting" him in the eyes of the public, what do you do then?

As angry as people are, this is not the time for emotional decision-making.
