Well he’s a traitorous piece of shit.

“Mr. Rubio, do you think it was OK for Trump to say that China should investigate the Bidens?”

True. That said, low 50s is historically high for support at the beginning of impeachment proceedings.  Usually support starts low but rises as more information is unearthed.

I don't know. The vast majority of voting age Americans simply don't pay attention. If they were, the polls would be much higher in favor of Impeachment and removal. 

Exactly this. Impeachment needs to reach at least 60% public support to actually have a shot at *removal*. We’re in the low-to-mid 50's.

They aren’t the majority. They’re just the loudest voices.

It doesn’t matter. Trump can say: “this is a quid pro quo situation and I want you to give me information on Biden so I can use it in my campaign — some thing that is very valuable to me and my 2020 campaign —or else I will not provide any further aid” and it wouldn’t move the needle that much.

The other angle. 

Call the cops on your Fox News-brainwashed relatives and try to get their guns taken away next time they start ranting about shooting immigrants on sight. 

To a certain extent, I also worry about this. To the point where one of my winter activities in my very Northern, very Blue state is going to be to buy a shotgun and go to the range and learn how to use it. I’m also cultivating good relationships with all of my neighbors, making sure I know everybody, and especially

If he wants to be dictator we should treat him like one: permanent exile on some island somewhere and all his supporters can go with him.

Americans have too much to lose to want to die to remove / preserve a president who tweets dumb shit.

Been saying this for a while. I really don’t see any scenario now where his administration ends without political violence.
Impeached and removed? Coup.
Loses the election? Fraud, basically a coup.
Refuses to leave office in 2024, has to be removed? Coup.
Big Mac and Diet Coke-induced heart attack? Man that healthy, dying

A bunch of “freedom” loving patriots stand ready to inflict violence, not against tyranny but for it.  What a world.

Um, I think you and the guy who won the Civil War have also won this comment thread! Yow!

As soon as the hot water and internet goes out everyone will immediately abandoned their desire for glorious violent upheaval.

I’m gearing up for it. People want to make a play, we’ll see how it all shakes out.

It’s not like this is the first time American Assholes overplayed their hand...

I try to find the silver lining and imagine just how fucked the Evangelicals will be once he is gone.

Amazing how all of these men live with a fantasy that they’re charismatic, smart, strong, and independent yet each one of these chuds is one of Trump’s handmaidens and errand boy.
