Impeachment.

It doesn't matter one whit if impeachment cleared the House on a party-line basis. (Who expected otherwise?)

What counts is the body of evidence and testimony. That has to turn the tide, or else...

Pelosi delayed this for as long as possible and then had no choice but to cave to reality. The votes that matter in the House will be on Impeachment Articles. That's when the rubber truly hits the road. It's important to get that on the record.

Sure, impeachment will probably pass the House and is likely DOA in the Senate as senators are not inclined to convict. So, Trump will serve out his term -- unless mental, physical or cognitive impairment makes that impossible.

From a very narrow political perspective, impeachment is a complete waste of time as regards possible conviction. But it's an absolute necessity, as a referendum, on this President's conduct while in office.
