The Odds DT Gets Impeached
Check this out: Not Too Long of a Read
It seems to be a waste to bet on this as the actual likelihood of an impeachment is slim to none. Am I wrong?
Some of the other ones are pretty interesting...
Interesting:
Paddy Power also has odds on whether a tape will emerge to back allegations of golden shower dalliances with Russian h***ers. Although Trump has vigorously denied the unsavory reports, the betting site says the odds a tape will pop up on RedTube are 4:1.
Nothing is impossible. Let's face it, impeachment is just something that people scream when they don't like the person in office.
If you were a republican in congress, wouldn't you want Pence over Trump as president? If you were a democrat, wouldn't you want literally anyone else as president?
There comes a time when it becomes toxic to be associated with a leader with rock bottom approval ratings (which Donny isn't quite at yet, but take a look at current trends and his track record after 2 weeks...) and congress decides it's had enough. Normally you wouldn't ever think that a president with a majority of congress would ever be impeached, but the republicans are potentially much less supportive of their party's president than any other time in recent history - there's a reason DT has been shitting out EOs without even consulting congress. Anyway, I don't think it's probable, but it's certainly possible that Trump could get impeached, especially if he continues being so erratic. More likely, his approval ratings drop, dems gain ground in the midterms, and just stonewall him for 2 more years.
Yeah I always thought that Pence may have been a dangerous choice for Trump. If he spurns the republican establishment in a way that no longer serves their interests, they have a corny bible-belt rotary club stooge in place to advance Paul Ryan & co's agenda. Of course the counter to that is that with the election being as slim as it was (the 3 necessary swing states were won by 200k total votes), Trump may not have been able to win without the calming effect of Pence as his VP.
I'm more interested in the odds of a Romney 2020 or someone like Kasich in 2020. People forget the incumbent still has to campaign, even in the primaries after their first term. The incumbent's party typically bows out in respect, but he has shown none for tradition, so why should anyone else?
I think this is unlikely. Romney is to the Republican party what Hillary is to the Democratic party. Both are pragmatic and have nuanced views about the world. The rise of Bernie Sanders and Trump in 2016 reflects that neither the democratic or republican base have any further interest in candidates that appreciate the complexity of the economy, foreign policy, etc. They just want the guy who says they alone can solve their problems. I don't think Trump's success or failure as a president will alter that sentiment.
Although, if he does not deliver substantial results, then his unprecedented incompetence will lead to Bernie or Warren in 2020/2024.
Yeah. It's a bit of lofty optimism on my part. We're probably going to be stuck with 8 years of uncertainty and whatever his latest thoughts are because impeachment is very low odds too. It has only happened when something illegal occurred, which you'd have to be really insecure to do and completely out of ideas as president. That's unlikely because the president has so much authority.
But, I do realize that this type of topic is the one that could be on the minds of many Americans throughout the term. And I'm sure, if one of these lobs go south, people will question their decision making process. I'm just blown away that sensible people are actually going to disappear for awhile.
To be frank about it, it is political suicide for any republican in congress to actually back an impeachment proceeding unless they are in a state that went for Hillary, remember that off year elections tend to attract the more staunch wings of the perspective parties. If a republican votes for this they will face the wrath of the more extreme members of their party and have a much higher chance of facing primaries and being removed from office through that measure. It's an extreme risk that I seriously doubt will happen.
Shouldn't start a precedent of impeaching presidents for being controversial. As much as I despise Trump and find him to be a bigot and unfit for the presidency, he was fairly elected and should not be impeached unless he does something that is non-controversially horrible.
I have a feeling if this term does not go well, Trump will be the first president in modern history to not run for a 2nd term lol
LBJ not modern?
Zero chance unless the constitution is amended to allow baseless feelings and 6 year old child like emotions to be valid impeachment reasons.
Republicans will win even more seats in a year and dems constant protesting over stubbed toes will do nothing but turn off centrists outside of city centers.
