    This Impeachment foray will fail miserably ...

    And that's it. They won't be able to try impeachment again.
    They had just one round in their impeachment rifle, and it was a squib.

    Now what can they do ?

    Has Congress done anything besides try to destroy President Trump over the last three years or so?

      They gave the donor class a huge tax cut that jacked up the deficit. Does that count? Trump courted impeachment, so relax and enjoy the ride.

        Just how many times can the democrats Cry Wolf
        before squandering even the small amount of credibility they have left ?

            Here's what I think. The dimocraps know they haven't got a snowball chance in hell of impeaching Trump but they are in love with the idea. It goes from one subject to another or no subject at all.

            I don't know all the legalities but I've heard that if a person is under indictment they can't run for office. Now while I don't see things ever reaching that I do wonder what other stages of investigation might stop a person from running for office.

            I think the dims know that they have no one who can compete with Trump so the next best thing is to eliminate him from being able to run.

              Actually they can impeach him but unlikely the Senate convicts. If an impeachment investigation proceeds, then courts might give deference to the House over the executive. Trump fears disclosure, not removal from office.

                  Hillary is "DEMANDING" that Trump be impeached simply because her husband was, no other reason.

                  Barr, after reading the memo, which is now public domain, has already cleared Trump.

                  If any of you haven't read the "earth ending", "everybody go to hell" memo here it is. Trump does politely ask the Ukrainian president to look into Biden's sons actions since there appears to be obvious wrong doings but that's about it.

                      They don't have the votes. Not even close to a two thirds.

                        Yeah, I heard that some of the democrats that were hoping to get re-elected were not on board with this impeachment voting.

                          DT as a foreigner you apparently don't understand that the impeachment is equivalent to an indictment. The trial follows. This one looks serious from what I've seen so far. Yes probably Trump isn't convicted but don't think the Senate GOP won't demand multiple hides of White House underlings in exchange for Trump surviving. And Trump's past suggests he will throw as many bodies under the bus as necessary to live another day.

                              also keep in mind that Clinton was impeached,


                              and still served till the end of his presidency,

                              I remember a bunch of hoopla over him being convicted of various crimes when his last term ended,,

                              nothing happened, he just got more rich
