      The theory that Trump somehow "wants" to be impeached seems crazy, or at least Trump is crazy if he really "wants" that. Why would you want to be relegated to the same ignominious historical category as Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton?

      The theory that impeachment would automatically be a strategic boon to Trump is also crazy. We have no idea what the political ramifications would be, and 1998 is a useless precedent for evaluating this:https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-the-runaway-impeachment-train-20190528-jfedgjwbjnegrjxxehrzwx53fa-story.html …

          Agreed. It’s a crap shot for all the principles from this point on. The only thing that is predictable is even more partisan tribalism and intensification of politics, more government dysfunction, more alienation and disillusion among most people.

          I would agree if there was hard evidence of wrongdoing and impeachment wasn't widely unpopular in polling. D's have screamed impeach for 2.5 years, absent the possibility of hard evidence appearing this will just anger voters.

          I don't think it would change the alignment of the electorate but the enthusiasm might change. And who, after all, wants a President Mike Pence? It only takes a day as president for him to actually sign off on all those regime change wars Trump backed off from finally doing.

          This is just a revival of the "Trump doesn't really want to be president" talking point from the 2016 primary. Of COURSE he wants to be president. He may not like the day-to-day legislating but he sure loves the power and the ass-kissing.

          Trump wants them to TRY, because he knows it will end the SAME WAY 3 years of #Russigate did for them. Just LIKE ALL OF US KNOW THAT. But no one listens to us.pic.twitter.com/HJWmtnRyCN

          Yes, but if this turns out to be nothing, He will have a blueprint for a VERY shrewd gambit: Create frenzied calls for Impeachment with speculative partial stories, then debunk them. Trump likely didn’t plan all this, but given the reaction, it could have been a smart move.

          Senate Republicans are holding their own gun to their own heads on impeachment. We know Trump is an unrepentant criminal authoritarian so hearings exposing that, then Senate Republicans clearing him would be suicide

          Impeachment is a strategic error by Dems. Likely failure. Not popular outside the bubble. Distracts from issues, where Dems are strong. Puts Pence in power. Evokes fury from Trumpite 33% of pop.

          Only 40% favored impeachment in August. There’s no crime. After 3 years of “muh Russia!” do you really expect they can say “No, forget Russia! It’s Ukraine!” and get away with it? With an election little more than a year away?
