Actually it is about do over. Trump's obnoxious personality was on full display during the election. This exact argument was raised pretty much daily during the election. And the voters didn't agree with you.
That was before anyone found out that his obnoxious displays while campaigning were going to translate into actual obnoxious displays of incompetence while being POTUS—especially since he literally has his hands on both (a) the launch codes and (b) the red hot poker stirring the ashes in the fireplace with North Korea.
It reminds me of all of the warnings levied by the engineers that the O-rings on the Space Shuttle
Challenger were not designed to operate under such extreme conditions of cold—and could fail.
President Donald Trump is an O-ring and he operates under extreme conditions of cold. Continued intransigence in taking it under advisement could result in—
a catastrophic failure.[/quote]
The Democrats in Congress would be STUPID to impeach Trump and actually havr him removed from office. (1) Instead of having a bumbling incompetent who can only seem to Accomplish Things by executive order, we would have Pence who is a much more skilled poitician. Republicans may actually be able to advance their legislative agenda. (2) Impeachment makes him a martyr to the causes of smaller government, responsive government, populism, etc. Also galvanizes that angry part of the populace who see their Special Privilege evaporating in the push for equal rights. Especially the Special Privilege that Christians seem to be losing. Their free exercise of their religion to set the limits on moral, therefore societal, mores is being eroded.
The Republicans can't afford to impeach Trump either because of (2) above which threatens the RINOs or fiscal & intellectual conservatives to lose control of their party. Tossing the Christians in with the Tea Party would possibly be the best thing for the republicans. It would certainly lessen the blatant internal hypocrisy.
So, yeah, 4 more years of Trump. Because the Democrats are still trying to figure out how to elect Hillary Clinton. The Sanders section has no intellectual support or actual ... anything besides they dislike Clinton almost as much as republicans do. With no game plan, no message, no path forward, they will be unable to make much if any headway in the mid term elections.
its a sad day in America.
