Well, it's a matter of style. I hate starting threads (to the point of finding years-old threads to add on to sometimes), so I used Flock's convenient Donny, Drumpf, Trump thread; while Bob prefers new threads. I also quoted the column in full, so we won't be blocked by the Times paywall in a few days.

Let's not anticipate. I may not be an expert card player like Bob, but I understand the value of letting events play out at their own pace.

Expert? I'd bet on you first. Be serious.

Saturday Night Massacre

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman"

I don't know what event will get the ball rolling this time.

I'm not in favor of impeachment at this time. I'm in favor of investigating all of the questionable stuff that Republicans have been turning a blind eye to for the last 19 months. I'll settle for roughly half the vigor with which the Republicans investigated Secretary Clinton. And Democrats have a lot more to work with. Once all the facts get out, I'll be more than happy to let the chips fall where they may. --Bob

Assuming that the Democrats take control of the House this time, I think they need a good bit more to impeach Trump than they have now. The problem is that too many of Trump's supporters either don't feel what he has done is all that bad or explain it away as Fake News.

I think they'll be getting it pretty soon though. I don't think that Mueller is just going to issue some lengthy report that Trump will try to either bury or explain away; if Trump has committed impeachable offenses, a lot of other people have committed jailable offenses. Mueller is going to lay the hammer down hard with a bunch of indictments. Remember in Watergate that impeachment proceedings didn't even start until all the key players had been indicted.
