22. This is why impeachment is the unacceptable route.

We Americans have dug ourselves into a DEEP hole allowing that orange gollum to illegally sit in our white house. This nightmare is bigger than trump, he's only the face of it. The entire GOP has orchestrated a coup. This is not hyperbole, this is history. Impeach trump and you still have the full mechanism in place that defrauded our country in the first place. Win the midterms (at least the House) and you still have the mechanism in place that carried out this fraud sharing power. The situation we Americans are in, those who don't support trump whatever their political confession is, is perilous. No matter what we do America will lose. Keep trump, and America continues to receded from the world stage while economic and social catastrophe looms, Get rid of trump and not only do you deal with the millions of those in the trump cult who will act out in a emotional way, but you still have in place the corrupt mechanism that got him into the White House in the first place. There is no easy road here.
