Although, I'm not convinced the House would necessary vote to Impeach trump once the Democratic majority takes office in 2019.

the fact that the House Dems will have subpoena power come January. I can't wait for them to submit a request to the Treasury for Trump's tax returns. The Dems need to be very strategic in how they use that power so as to not be perceived as going over board.

stop fuming about losing the house, and take his juvenile revenge plots elsewhere.

We don't need media attention to justify our victory, it's the same victory with or without applause.
