You've said this a number of times here on FreeRepublic, Larry. I have a lot of respect for you, but after reading this post I have to ask a simple question:

If Donald Trump has to conduct himself in office based on his fear about Democrats and RINOs impeaching him, then why the hell did he even want the job in the first place?

I think he thought and still believes that slowly, over time, he can win these battles one at a time.

But I wrote in January that this would be a race between Trump’s job creation ability/the economy and the Democrat/RINO ability to impeach him.

Rush is talking about this now. “High crimes & Misdemeanors” is a very, very loose phrase meaning “Whatever the House chooses to make it.”

Now, do you really think that there are a solid 220 votes for Trump in the House? Do you think there are more than 15 solid votes for him in the Senate?

It’s not about Trump’s “fear” but about reality. He is walking a very, very thin wire. It started when he rightly called out everyone on that stage at his Inauguration Speech.

He has the House, Senate, SCOTUS, The People’s support, but there is fear of impeachment AND conviction in the event of a shutdown?

Am I reading this right?

Rush doing a good job on this, but he said “Trump’s team should write the legislation itself.” Fine, but how do you get it out of committee?

Trump couldn’t unseat Ryan during last year’s primary.
