Why do Republicans think impeachment will do anything? The president is twice impeached and if anything he's worse than ever.
-
Because they have the votes to convict and remove.
-
They need a two thirds vote in the Senate to convict on an impeachment. A simple majority is not enough. They do not have the votes to convict.

FINALLY! They're going after the People who used Unsecure Nongovernmental Text Messaging Apps to PLAN A WAR in which AMERICANS WILL DIE!
Wait nevermind.

This is the first time I've seen you break character. Hope you're taking care of yourself in this challenging environment for satire.

Try all you want. Won't happen.
Also, traitors.

They have the votes. There's really no reason to suspect it won't happen.....
This is a very dangerous and scary time.

The article states that they’d need 14* Democrats to vote for impeachment and that this is a nonstarter. What do you mean that they have the votes?
Edit: since this got a lot of traction, I’ll add my reply here. Impeaching a Democrat nominated judge or a non-partisan Republican judge who is acting well within the law AND trying to ensure that Separation of Powers still exists is entirely different than voting in nominees for cabinets, which happens within every administration.

Removal requires 2/3 in the senate meaning 67 senators need to vote yes. There are only 53 republicans
Even on the shutdown stuff with Schumer actively pushing for voting for the CR, they only got to 62 not 67. Would be even harder to convince them to vote for a judge impeachment comparatively
Still call your senators and let them know not to vote for it, but it highly unlikely they would have the votes

How dare Federal Judges actually defend the law and the constitution when Trump breaks it. Do realize these impeachments could never pass the Senate. So the real purpose is to try to intimidate Judges.

This is just about corruption in the government. It's easier to just pass the law that makes it legal.
