(58,785 posts)when there is sufficient BIPARTISAN agreement, joining a portion of the Republican electorate with Democratic voters, that he needs to be removed, thus empowering the process. He will not be impeached as a shabby political gesture without possibility of removal because Democrats don't do that sort of thing.
Bipartisan agreement will occur when enough Republicans get scared and hurt enough and/or disgusted with having chosen a "loser" instead of the strong leader they thought they were getting. Unfortunately, we now know it will not happen when enough draw the line morally, ethically, patriotically, intellectually or even according to their professed religious doctrine.
An different possibility would be that fascist leaners will outvote those committed to democracy and Trump will remain until another authoritarian faction deposes him.
November 6 is when we kill that possibility off.
