If you tried now, it wouldn't even get out of committee, because RubleCons. And then you'd be done. Any RubleCon Senator allies or leaners would shy away and be even less ready to help.

The American public has no stomach for repeated impeachments.

By all means make ENABLING and ACCOUNTABILITY issues and character issues in the election. But "impeachment" per se must bide it's time until the (one) shot (metaphorical) can be fired with full force and find its mark square on and be effective.
