I do not believe the republicans will impeach trump even if the FBI finds something he should be impeached for. The republicans in congress are puppets of their rich donors. They only care about their donors and keeping their jobs. They do not put country first. If the democrats take over congress they will impeach trump.
If the american people vote to keep the republicans in control of congress in 2018. That will prove to me the american people have lost their way. That would keep trump in the Whitehouse. It would completely normalize what we are watching right now. Think about it. Trump would see it as a mandate.
This election will decide our future like no other. The very idea of america is on the line. Every belief and value i have is on the line. Reality itself is on the line. If the republicans keep control of congress this election, nothing would ever make sense to me again. I would be lost.

(2,795 posts)We have seen voter restrictions and suppression in so many states. How much can on person be asked to do to simply vote? Most of those who would vote out the republicans are usually not in jobs that they can stand in line for an entire day or drive miles away to try and vote.
Sure a lot of it can be attributed to apathy and laziness or a lack of even paying attention. But a lot can be attributed to the voter suppression. And I've been reading that 22 states have or will be putting in place even more voter suppression laws before the 2018 election.
On a district level, getting them out will be hard. Senate might be more doable.
