      1. With all the Mueller news, there's increasing chatter about impeachment. But realistically, it's still a long shot.

      2. It's easy to imagine Dems regaining House & impeaching. But to actually remove Trump you need 2/3 in Senate. A very high hurdle.

      3. Best case scenario for Dems in 2018 election would still leave them needing 15 Republican senators to remove Trump. But GOP buy-in is hard.

      4. Will some GOP break with Trump to remove? The fact is, even as Trump is very unpopular he remains strong with GOP base.

      5. Some thoughts on why Dems shouldn't get hopes up on impeachment & instead pursue other ways of fighting Trump/Trumpism: https://newrepublic.com/article/146098/democrats-dangerous-obsession-impeachment …

          Regardless of what the senate does, if Dems win the house, the first thing they should do is impeach Trump. Even if Trump survives it in the senate.

          It is very important to make sure that Trump’s presidency has that asterix for posterity.

          Indeed impeachment rests entirely on if we have a rule at all remaining for Trump-types or if our institutions have already evaporated.

          Impeachment is a driver of the Dem vote. Demanding impeachment is a way to change the Overton Window to the left. The antipathy for Trump in areas that voted for him is very high. This is the time to capitalize and put impeachment/removal pressure for resignation into the convo.
