What would it take for the corrupt Republicans to impeach the criminal president?

Most likely this is not going to happen. but, I'm looking at this seriously, because everyone knows he's batshit whatever. But the republicans are still in his pocket. This can't go on like this and the felon is going to do something that will cause his demise. It is almost a fait accompli, and the way things are going, it might happen before the mid-terms.

I'm talking about the Senate trial, following a House impeachment....
which would only happen after a DEMOCRATIC House votes to impeach him.


Today's House Republicans, what would it take for them to vote to impeach him?
You'd pretty much have to point a gun at their heads... literally.

He's already had a trial run in that direction.

...which, incidentally, would amount to roughly 1/200 of the national debt.

That's probably the only thing that would do it. If a Democratic president did even a small fraction of the things he's done, they would have impeached him long ago.
