If the House impeached him again....?

And held up the Articles of Impeachment until after the Election, what would be the impact?

What if the Democrats take the Senate but Trump keeps the White House?

Could that be leverage for the Democrats?

I understand that is a lot of "what ifs" but it is not impossible.

Is that too "hard ball" for the Democrats?

Impeached on what charges?  You DUmmies have come to see impeachment as a regular every day tool to use to reverse the results of an election you didn't like, not a serious matter to be used only under the most dire circumstances where the survival of the Country is at risk.

And held up the Articles of Impeachment until after the Election, what would be the impact?

If Biden won, none, because the issue would be mooted by the election. Is Star Moron kentuck less than confident of a Biden victory? :rotf:  :tongue:

If Trump won but the Dems got the majority in the Senate and kept a majority in the House, none. Because the Dems would not get the 67 votes necessary to remove Trump.

Now for SVPete's not-so-Wild-Ass guesses ... if the House impeached Trump again:

* Impeaching Trump while his administration is still fighting Covid-19 will not play well outside of Loony-Blue strongholds;

* Wasting more time and $$ on another doomed-to-fail Shampeachment will not play well outside of Loony-Blue strongholds;

* Either Trump's legal team would SHRED the House Shampeachment Manglers or the Dem Senate leaders would silence Trump's legal team,  lose-lose alternatives for the Dems outside of Loony-Blue strongholds.

A year ago I thought Miss Nancy and her lapdog House-Dems smart enough to realize all that and restrain their hatred. But they proved me wrong, so :shrug: . As entertaining as a Shampeachment 2.0 process would be, I think it would be very unhealthy for the country. :old: (my beard isn't that long, but it is white :-) )

1., You have to have Articles to hold the impeachment vote.  The House can't just vote 'Impeached for reasons yet to be determined.'

2.  F*** around and find out what happens.

I am already on record ssying from now on EVERY TIME the House is the opposite party as POTUS there will be a POTUS impeachment. Every time.  And THAT is the result of the 100%  political impeachment of Trump.

The articles of impeachment:  Filling vacancies in accordance with the constitution.  The peaceful transfer of power.  Maintaining continuity of government.

Hate to disagree with you but the gopE will never impeach a demo-commie president again. Now every time there is a republican president and donkey HOR, there will be an impeachment.. maybe up to 3 impeachments per term.

Hopefully, it will make the House majority that Kevin McCarthy is going to get that much bigger.  While most individuals with the mental power of an earthworm, or above, realizes that there is no law against replacing a SCOTUS Justice leading up to an election, the Dems have to throw whatever they can at Trump to stop him.  It’s not going to work.  Over and over, one thing that Donald Trump has proven is that just when you think he’s beaten, he rises from the ashes like a Phoenix and kicks your ass.  So it will be again.

I don't think conservatives would try to impeach a Democrat president unless that president acted in a way that deserved being impeached.

I would love to see what happens in the house elections if the dems try another impeachment. And by all means, dems, feel free to advertise right before an election that you're going to pack the courts and enact all your other sick power fantasies.
