No president has ever been removed via 2/3rds Senate vote to impeach.

It's not wise to assume that this will play well w/ the public - when most of the public doesn't follow any of these technical facets of government, and only vote on poorly informed perceptions of what's actually happening.

I don't believe that this impeachment effort is going to be popular with swing voters. It will rally up the left - for sure - but Dems do not hold the moral authority like they think they have. Most of the electorate considers both parties to be crooks at this point.

Yes - all the conventional wisdom points towards Trump having no business even being President, let alone winning a second term. However, how many times has as sitting President failed to earn a second term in recent decades? Trump has defied all of these statistics and "expert" data crunching - and I don't think pushing for impeachment will change that. What will change that is getting behind a movement that takes the fight to him directly. Dems have to be ready for a street fight - not a faux civil impeachment proceeding.
