Clinton was impeached in the House. Doesn't really mean anything. I think we can all agree it's not going anywhere in the Senate. So what's the point??
The point would be to just stop the administration in its tracks. The admin would be able to do nothing else if it was bogged down in impeachment proceedings. IMO, the D's plan isn't to actually impeach Trump, it is to bog down the admin in impeachment proceeding so that the admin can't actually do anything else.

You’re conveniently forgetting the Billy Bush tape and Stormy Daniels.

What about those two are LEGAL reasons for impeachment?

Yeah...perhaps they should claim he wasn't born here?
You do recall the lunatic left started all that with questioning McCain for the exact same reason, right?

Going through the Impeachment process leading up to the 2020 election, IMO, would help Trump if he is not removed from office. I can see him going around the country talking about the rigged system and using his real life story as an example.

Creepy porn lawyer and his bankrupt firm was just hit with a $10 million judgment. Remember when he was going to be the demise of Trump? And before that, that fake michael wolff book.
Everything the dems do is a scam.

That would be something.
They might wanna be careful about doing that though....Trump's narrative might be helped just a tad if they literally tried 20 different impeachment trials.

RE: Bank On Dems Introducing Articles of Impeachment
So the Democrats are going to impeach Trump because he beat Clinton.
And that, right there, is why they continue to lose and why they deserve it as well.

I had no clue that some GOP congress critters tried to introduce articles of impeachment for that?
Who did that?
