In reply to the discussion: There is one very compelling reason not to impeach Trump [View all]Andy823

I can't understand why so many here can't get that through their head. We are stuck with him until he either goes insane, or till the election.
He is a narcissist, and he needs attention, and turmoil. He has to play people against each other, and I think that he may really want Democrats to impeach him so he will have a fight on his hands, which he loves, and he also knows impeachment will not work once it goes to the Senate, and he will claim victory once again. I believe Pelosi knows what she is doing.
I also think a lot of our "impeach" crowd are trolls doing their best to divide and cause problems here on DU. Kind of like they did the last time in the primaries and election!

I don't want Trump impeached. I know the constitution allows for it, and logic demands it...

Here's why. 80K votes. That's what separated us from a fairly run-of-the-mill Clinton...

Not suffer. I don't wish that on anyone, but assume the consequences of their vote? Absolutely.

The best reason not to impeach, imo, is the current state of the Democratic Party.
