Calling it now- Trump will be impeached and removed immediately after the TaxScam passes

The foreseeability of harm is undeniable at this point. We are all in danger with Trump at the helm. And if the worst happens, Congress/Senate members who stood by and did nothing will be liable. I think most of them know that now.

I don't think they will wait. WH staff/advisers are telling reporters and anyone who will listen that Trump is delusional and unfit. That means he has to go. They don't have a choice at this point. Meanwhile, world leaders are rebuking Trump for putting millions in danger with his racist tweets. I think it's over.

That would require Pence and half the Cabinet, right? Since he's insulted at least half of them, maybe they'll be angry enough.

15. The 25th amendment still requires 2/3 of House and Senate to make it stick

which makes the 25th an even higher bar than impeachment (which requires 1/2 of the House and 2/3 of the Senate).

They want him to sign the tax bill - regardless of the impact to the nation - and once it is signed, they will impeach him.

Then like the lying GOP breed that they are - they will then campaign in 2018 on their courage in impeaching him. And the voters of the GOP will see these profiles in courage and vote for them again.

a revolt from deplorables before the bill is passed? After the taxscam passes, they'll put Pence in and start rolling back women's rights. Part 2 of their agenda. Meanwhile, Sessions will be rolling back civil rights at the DOJ. Unfortunately, even with trump removed, we'll still be up shit's creek.
