House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) told NPR that the impeachment inquiry would be worth it regardless of whether President Trump is successfully removed from office.
"If [impeachment] deters further presidential misconduct, then it may provide some remedy, even in the absence of a conviction in the Senate, Schiff told NPRs Steve Inskeep in an interview scheduled to air Wednesday.
"I don't think any decision has been made on the ultimate question about whether articles of impeachment should be brought. That will be the purpose of these hearings and the subsequent work done in the Judiciary Committee, Schiff said.
But on the basis of what the witnesses have had to say so far, there are any number of potentially impeachable offenses, including bribery, including high crimes and misdemeanors, he added. The basic allegations against the president are that he sought foreign interference in a U.S. election, that he conditioned official acts on the performance of these political favors.

Drag the country through lies and smears. Yeah, totally worth it. (sarc)
So they can brandish him as a criminal,
the impeached president Donald j trump
Little asinine Adam the schittless Schiff is proving once again that he and the rest of the DemocRATS are a group of sick individuals that will do anything to get their way. All Illegal if necessary.
For once I agree with Schifty Schiff, but not quite the way he thinks.
A failed impeachment would HELP Trump in 2020 and further discredit the demonRats.
I suspect that he knows that the coup will fail, and he trying to salvage something from what is shaping up to be a disaster for his party.
Good. Then hell pick up the tab.
