Flop sweat is pouring out of Trump & the GOP. Their desperate attempts at obfuscation is pathetic and not working. 70% of Americans say Trump has done something wrong. 51% say he should be Impeached & Removed. The Truth still matters.

What's to consider? This is a no-brainer. It's a phony Impeachment Witch Hunt. You did nothing wrong. You like the idea. And may I strongly suggest you do it in person at the televised hearings. Just think of the tremendous ratings you would achieve! #aMEricaFIRST https://t.co/YgzVaNJsC0

#BREAKING “I then heard President Trump ask, ‘So he's going to do the investigation?’ Ambassador Sondland replied that, ‘He's going to do it’ adding that President Zelensky wiIl ‘Do anything you ask him to’ ...the President did not give a shit about Ukraine” #ImpeachmentHearings https://t.co/xlNQEGXKZz

Donald Trump is as unfit for the presidency today as he was when he was inaugurated. He thinks he’s a king and above the law, and believes Nixon’s ridiculous statement, “When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal.” https://t.co/sMJfxa6Sdi

Pundits have predicted that Donald Trump's upcoming impeachment promises to be the most watched and peachiest impeachment of all time.

Impeachment Fun Facts

. Impeachment is a political recourse, not a legal recourse

. The House votes to Impeach. A simple majority 51% is all it takes to send the article(s) of impeachment to the Senate for a trial. Democrats have enough votes without bipartisan support.

. The Senate holds the trial to Remove. A 2/3rd super majority is required to Remove a President from office. It would take ~20 Republicans to break ranks. Public opinion as hearings progress will influence how the House and Senate votes.

. The House can vote to Impeach on some or all articles but the Senate still acquit. It can’t be reversed, and still goes on permanent record until the earth no longer exists. Votes for or against will be used in campaigns for 2020 election.

. Nixon was never Impeached. He resigned before the articles of Impeachment were put to House floor vote. VP Ford became President, and the next election saw a significant shift of Dems winning seats plus Carter won the next election.

. Clinton was Impeached by the House but acquitted by the Senate. His approval rating went up. Despite Gore winning the popular vote, Bush43 was appointed President by the Supreme Court after the contested battle of electoral votes in Florida, because ~Florida.

Ontd are you surprised that a whopping 70% of Americans believe TRE45ON did a bad thing with Ukraine?
