Some liberals are really delusional.

Look, Trump makes Nixon look like Eleanor Roosevelt. A psychotic, paranoid Eleanor Roosevelt, but nonetheless...

Leaving aside whether the comparison of Trump to Nixon is valid, the big difference is that when Nixon was impeached, the Democrats had a substantial majority in the House. Today, it is the Republicans who have a substantial majority in the House.

They will only vote to impeach Trump if Republican voters get disillusioned with him otherwise they will not risk their own reelection by voting him out and alienating his supporters. Even if articles of impeachment are passed, they would then need 67 votes in the Senate favoring his conviction and removal.

What Democratic voters feel is irrelevant to Republican elected officials and if Democrats are pissed off, it may even help how they are perceived by the Republican base.

But keep fantasizing about his impeachment and removal from office ......... or focus instead on why Democrats have been decimated in federal and state elections since 2008.

Hint: it is not because of Comey and Russian hacking.

Therefore, they haven't actually seen the latest mainstream news about the possible Russian collusion with trump and his campaign.

Of course we've seen it, silly. The key word here is "possible." Also, "allegedly." You do understand the implication of those words, right?

ok, so when it is proven to be true...then what?

When it is disproven, then what? What will your next strategy be to delegitimize this presidency? You all ought to be working on that strategy next.

I cringe every time I hear Trump supporters complain about attempts,to delegitimize Trump's presidency. Yet, Trump spent five years attempting to delegitimize Obama's presidency unsuccessfully using every trick in the book.

Trump et al delegitimize cries cause me much amusement. Hypocrites all.

I think they were referring to the fact that he didn't need to leave the office. I think everyone knows he was impeached.

Like the coward he is, he wouldn't actually allow himself to go through the trial. He'll resign.

Yes, didn't Gerald Ford pick Nelson Rockefelller? or was NR in a line of succession?

Thinking he is just waiting until Trumps numbers tank and the evidence of Russian/Trump collusion gets solid enough to tarnish the whole ticket. If, in the meantime, Trump just happens to violate a couple of other clauses in the constitution - so much the better. Then Paul Ryan assumes the presidency (speaker of the house is third in line of succession) without ever having to run for office. He simply just has to wait long enough to get evidence that damns both trump and pence. Maybe get pence for knowing but not reporting? What did pence know and when did he known it? If Ryan becomes president, can he pick his own vice president. Or is it 4th in line of succession. Heaven help me, that is starting to look like a good outcome. The plus side of Trump's choice of appointees is that churn will be substantial and fired/burned friends will leak like a fire hose.

You have it all backwards. The I.G. is going to put out a report harshly criticizing Comey for not bringing criminal charges against Chillery. Loretta Lynch is in for a spanking too.

The left seems to forget that TRUMP was NOT President when all this hacking was going on! He wasn't Sec. of State! He wasn't FBI Director! He wasn't the Attorney General!

Don't you fools get it yet? EVERYTHING that happened that you're complaining about now has been going on for 8 years on Obama's watch.

Trump was allegedly too busy getting peed on.

What sort of perversion was the actual president engaged in if he was so distracted he could not focus on his duties?
