Since this House of Representatives has a majority comprised of co-conspirators, impeachment has next to no chance before 2019, and then only if we take back the House. The Senate likewise is majority co-conspirators, so there could be no conviction before we take that back as well.

This may be the beginning of the shit-storm I warned my children to expect after the 2016 "election".
