THE RISK THE REPUBLICANS TAKE

In all likelihood, Trump will be impeached, by the Democrats in November and will be acquitted by the Republicans either in December or January.   The Republicans will be assuming responsibility for any additional craziness of Trump during the year leading up to the elections.  During the past 3 years, Trump has demonstrated a propensity for getting into trouble and there has been no indication that he has learned anything from experience on the job.

Should the electorate tire of Trump's antics or war, economic or otherwise, break out, or the economy takes a downturn, it will be remembered that the Republicans had the opportunity to remove trump but didn't do it for political reasons.  It's a gamble the Republicans are making; I hope they lose.
