Nah, my money is on him getting re elected.

So that's totally legal and not grounds for impeachment.

If it was anyone else in the White House they would be screwed but the president is the only one that gets a pass.

I'm being pessimistic but the democratic party has done nothing so far to address the issue of why they loss.

They are still pushing establishment democrats. Even with the most recent vote for the new chair of the DNC.

But the added fact that the democrats (like DJ said) have done basically nothing to stop him, he's pretty much in as far as I can tell. Unless they are able to come up with somebody truly great on the dems side that can take him down. Honestly, I don't see that happening.

That isn't true. Trump voters said they would still vote for him. I know it is based of a recent poll and I hate polls in general now after Trump won but they still back their man.

They also need to win over working class voters that they lost to Trump. They aren't even talking to them.

Ja there's a lot of bitter partisanship, but impeachment is absolutely a question of legality. Also, Clinton was impeached for perjury, not the BJ.

Putting that aside, if the Dems impeached Trump on a legally flimsy grounds it would be political suicide and would turn Congress almost entirely red. Total conjecture though.

Nope. One party consent applies to everyone. That's how laws work.
