Never Trumper John Podhoretz, a contributing editor for the now-defunct Never Trump magazine the Weekly Standard, tweeted on Wednesday that he wondered whether the U.S. economy tanking would lead to President Donald Trump losing enough support from Republicans in Congress that he would be removed from office.

How many people's hearts sank when they saw the Dow went up 1,000 points because they really hoped Trump had plunged us into a bear market that would cause GOP legislators to turn on him and support removal after impeachment?— John Podhoretz (@jpodhoretz) December 26, 2018
the tanking economy won’t be trumps fault, but he will get the blame nonetheless.
How many hours after a Trump impeachment would the House also Impeach Pence?
So, we must assume you're for President Pelosi???
There would still need to be an underlying criminal offense in order for Trump to be impeached. Podhoretz and Mueller and none of the democrats can name a criminal offense that is impeachment-worthy. The economy could turn overnight into a Venezuela, but, impeachment would still not be warranted.
Wasn’t Trump that tanked the market. Trump’s conservative policies have brought back the economy and jobs, jobs, jobs! The markets were probably spooked by the economy-killing democrats taking over the congress and by the fed raising rates (over Trump’s objections).
We have to face the facts that 67 votes to convict and remove do exist in the Senate if it served to protect the Uniparty’s power.
I’m certainly no professor of economics, but I don’t think it takes one to see that an effort is underway to tank the economy and the stock market, starting with the Fed.
How many companies are willing to take one for the team?
Anyone who does not realize the stock market goes up and down is either illiterate or willfully stupid.
President Trump has done MORE for the country in every aspect, in his current time in office, than any other politician of any stripe or color in history.
The LSM wants him to fail so bad we have seen the endless stream of lies and no retractions (unless forced) since he was elected by the electorate of the USA.
It was by a majority that even the practiced election stealing apparatus could not defeat. GOD BLESS President Trump. Stay strong sir. We Americans need you and depend on you.

No, impeachment and removal from office, while different things, still are political, not criminal, actions.
Never Trumpers. = Always Treasonous
These toads could publicly fantasize about assassination and nothing would happen to them. In fact they’d probably be applauded by the Communists in the press and in the government.
This post is worth a bump.
Gas is 1.98 and now hiring signs everywhere!
So still winning
Fantasize ? It’s already underway.
Drudge is banner headlining that the market is back in the red, because it was down 400 after being up 1000 on Wednesday. Idiotic.
Thx, KC
So these azzholes want to tank the economy because they hate the President? The last time the economy tanked,millions lost life savings,pensions and investments and many communities turned into ghost towns with going out of business the new normal. Everyone knew somebody unemployed.I HATE these people. Let’s just get CWII on the road.
the stock market was clearly under serious attack, one can only think first of SorozNazi and his collaborators making their last ditch effort to pull USA down
however, the stock market is only a part of the American economy.....the easiest part for Soroz types to attack, manipulate....but only a part of a very large economy. And most (not all, of course) stock owners understand that stock prices go up and down, (and that they only incur actual losses if and when they decide to sell)
Christmas sales were up over 5% just this year. This is a significant surge in prosperity for the American economy. And there are many more jobs for people than just 2 years ago under Obama’s Great Recession.
