    Trump Wants to Be Impeached Again

    It's already in the cards thanks to his ill-founded trade war, no
    matter how that war plays out.

    Who's going to impeach him, Congress? Not likely.

    Quick, name one thing Congress has done since Jan 20th.

    I can't think of a single thing; it's all been executive orders.

    They're not going to lift a finger. The Cheeto is untouchable for now
    at least, and probably for quite a while. This Congress doesn't have
    the stones. The right doesn't have any interest in impeaching him, and
    the left doesn't have a strategy (or apparently, much of a clue).

    Look forward to Dems wearing pink and holding little opera signs that
    say "Musk lies." That's as tough as this crew is going to get.

    Impeachment, what a laugh. And the WSJ postulating it, for bonus
    laughs. Boy has that newspaper turned into toilet paper.

    I don't have a breakdown on who and how much they donate to
    congressional elections.

    If businesses and wall streeters donate the lion's share to Rs, these
    folks may bring their issue (beef) in person to their representatives.

    Hopefully, Tesla brand will bite the dust, so Elon will change his
    mind about supporting Rs up for election.

    I believe the congressional Rs have a strong interest, but lack the
    drive to put the pedal to the metal.
