It is easy to say now the Senate would not convict.

The impeachment debate and the Twitler's reactions would be epic. Would harm the Twitler even more. Who knows what his numbers might be then.

Then the trial in the Senate. It would take at least several days, maybe weeks with all of Twitler's Deplorable acts. During that time, the public would be mesmerized. It might be possible that enough Rs would be ashamed to vote for acquittal at that point.
