Perhaps Democrats should take Han Solo’s advice from Episode IV after last night’s big electoral win: Nice shooting, kid, don’t get cocky. Instead, Rep. Al Green appears to be channeling Solo’s other advice: Never tell me the odds. In a floor speech, the Texas Democrat pledged to force a vote on his articles of impeachment for Donald Trump in time to drop the lump of coal in the president’s Christmas stocking (via The Hill):

"Yes, but the GOP will never do it."
Not even if a Dem president held a presser in the nude and pledged allegiance to Satan.

It would take 29 rinos in the senate to seal the deal.

We can only hope this occurs.
It will split the Dim party.
Bigly.

They’re loyal, not gutless.
Goes back to the days of the original progressives too.

Force a vote that gets defeated? Nice way to go down in flames.
Any evidence for a charge of impeachment is flimsy at best, and rests entirely on hearsay and innuendo.
So, whatcha got? I mean, besides the (Con)Fusion GPS bundle of fabrications. And that is not even very good circumstantial data collection, as there are no outside corroborating sources.

It takes 67 votes in the Senate to convict.

The House can impeach for any reason they damn well please. Impeachment has nothing to do with a “crime” per se.
His affronts to Muslims could be construed as a “High Crime” should the House choose to do so.
Impeachment is purely political, with courtroom trappings.

I would not be surprised if the house voted to impeach. Then 3 rinos in the Senate seal the deal. Seal what deal?
They will not get 67 votes which is what they would need.
