Loses close re-election while under impeachment. Senate does jack shit in the meantime, Russia amplifies Trump Rhetoric and faux crisis. Massive election interference falls short. More division. Trump spends his dwindling fortunes on Legal Fees 2020-202?
Dies in Jail in 2026.

Nope.  I think they are panicking in private.  There's no way all of them have shut out the information their staff provides them on the polls, social media engagement, the damage Trump is doing to the GOP brand among the younger folks, etc.

The man has zero courage.  He is indeed too much of a pussy narcissist coward to off himself.  Or anything else.  If it requires a milligram of courage, it's beyond him. 

If I got my kids in as much trouble as he has done to his, I would have taken a header off the Loop 610 Ship Channel bridge a long time ago, but he's the kind of guy who wouldn't bat an eye if they were all thrown in prison and he remained free to cut deals and rawdog porn stars.

They're grown and have made their choices.  They could've taken their own path (I.e., Tiffany) or they could've followed daddy into the family scam.  

No sympathy.

These are comments that would have made sense 2 - 2.5 years ago. The Republicans in Congress ARE COMPLICIT. It feels like you want to give them the benefit of the doubt. Why? The corruption, immorality, and disingenuousness has been right there for all of us to see. Not a single one of them has stood up to Trump.

It will be really interesting to find out who's turning the screws on whom. Trump's not usually the one pulling a Congressman aside and telling him what will be revealed if he doesn't fall in line. I guess Lindsey's the exception. Trump has to take him out on the golf course to threaten him.

They can be complicit and still panicking in private.  We caught a glimpse of this with Graham.  We’ve seen him on some rants in the past year that looked like he was seconds away from completely shouting out something revealing.  

You don’t get that kind of anger out of a Southern dandy unless an address book or photo album that’s sitting in a safe somewhere could easily be released if they don’t follow certain instructions.

Oh, and how it would end in most any other country at any other time in history?

Look up "Piazzale Loreto" in Milan.

It almost certainly won't end up that way, because we are, by and large, a law-abiding population.  But if we were even slightly less so, that's the end game I'd see being played out.

We will probably have a dedicated impeachment thread soon enough, but until then I’ll put this here. 

 

A fantastic article on impeachment from 100 different angles if you have a *lot* of free time.

Amazing that something that took this much work to put together is free.
