Exactly. What “treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors” has he committed?

1. Impeachment is not decided by popular vote but by constitutional procedure.
2. This is nothing but more CNN Fake News. Other (real) polls show Trump’s approval at all-time highs.

I regard the emoluments angle to be utterly inane and insane. It is based on mind-reading - speculation about what foreign diplomats might be THINKING, i.e., "Trump will like it if I stay in his hotel" - and in the absence of any actual evidence that Trump has offered any quid-pro-quo to a foreign government in exchange for their using any of his businesses.

It also assumes that Trump would travel the country for a year running for office, remove himself from direct control of his business empire, put up with all the stresses and inconveniences and abuse of being president, to "profit" from business transactions (hotel room occupancies, etc.) which would have in all likelihood occurred anyway, even if he never ran for president.

It is of course possible that some people will stay in Trumps hotels and resorts and hotels because he is president, but it is even likelier - given what we have seen - that people will BOYCOTT them because he is president.

The idea that Trump ran for president to further his business interests makes no sense at any level.

I think they put this out because the snowflakes actually think you can impeach a Potus if you don’t like him.

Impeachment requires "treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors,"

All easily could be charged to Obama, Clinton and so many in DC Swamp. There is not one damn thing POTUS did wrong within the confines of the Constitution.

All I found was a claim the sample size was 1000 and all were “adults”. No idea if they were registered or likely voters of if they were even US citizens.

Basically this is another “Hillary can’t lose” poll.

Very well stated take on emoluments.
The left is doing everything they can to kill Trumps and their businesses:

The civil war that follows such a move would make the last one look like a Chautauqua.

“”Nowhere in the article does it reference what he would be impeached for.””

There are a number of actions they could cite - he beat Hillary in the election and is now sitting in HER White House; they just plain don’t like him; they don’t like the way he combs his hair; he doesn’t take their guff and you can add on from there. I’m sure they could fill a page of reasons but unfortunately the Constitution rules on that but from what I heard today of the Supreme Court decisions that were handed down, with the mixture of unexpected votes we can’t even depend on them anymore.

Oh look. A CNN poll, by a group I’ve never heard of, with absolutely no internals.

Let me guess:

Sample size: 12.
Margin of Error: +- 160%
Republicans. 0%
Democrats: 100%
CNN Viewers: 100%

I have not been able to figure out on what grounds they want to impeach him.

a less than pleasing personality?

bad hair?

too rich?

or that they are losing power minute by minute and need to get him out of the White House and get someone else in their who will play ball and that they can control?
