They took us there with Clinton, but part of the price was having to install W and guarding his backside for 8 years. They know if Trump is removed, it will be much easier the next time they install an incompetent in the WH.

Clinton survived because if was only a consensual bj and the country wasn't in peril. W was a disaster, but it didn't come until late in his tenure and Obama had to clean it up.

Now Trump has the worst of both, lying about sex, incompetence, and looming economic/diplomatic disaster. Huge GOP losses will make him a threat to their party as much as a threat to the nation, he's walking on a crumbling ledge.
