It seems many of you feel he will get impeached.  This poll isn't if you hope he gets impeached,  but if you feel it actually happens.

To further clarify, the Senate cannot save him like Clinton and he must be removed from office and not resign.

nope.

He will leave on his own before his term proclaiming that he is the only president ever that has delivered on all campaign promises & in record time.

He only needs to convince himself of that and he probably already has.

Yes, he could resign.   That doesn't count for this poll.

That's not what he meant.  Impeachment & being removed from office are 2 separate things.  No POTUS has ever been removed from office, but 2 have been impeached. 

If the D's win the HoR in 2018, he gets impeached, IMO.  I don't see him getting removed from office by Senate that will nit have a D super-majority.

Senate has to remove him from office.  Not a Bill Clinton situation.

 
I think if the russia stuff is really really bad then the Rs may eventually roll over after the 2018 elections since they won't have anything to lose at that point. I kinda still doubt it though. 

He's currently -155 to NOT finish his 4-year term though, which is shocking. 

 
He might get impeached after 2018 elections , but won't be removed from office by the Senate. 

I think he resigns before 2020. He'll  cite family or health reasons. And say that the MSM never gave him a chance.

That is why I started the poll.  After reading the Trump thread I was surprised at how many think this will happen.  Considering it has never happened it would be a 10 standard deviation type of event but apparently the FFA feels it is even money.

Obstruction of Justice is the leading option right now. 

Speculation alert...

Money laundering/RICO/financial crimes

Collusion with RUS re:DNC and election hacks

Quid pro quo with RUS easing sanctions in exchange for dumping DNC hacks

Knowledge of multiple campaign characters failing to disclose Russian contacts and/or tacit approval of such.

Impeachment has happened twice, Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton. What part of that don't you understand?

List of Presidents Who Were Impeached

Learn About the Only Two Presidents Accused of High Crimes and Misdemeanors

Only two presidents have been impeached in United States history, and neither was convicted of the charges filed against him. No president has been convicted of the charges filed against him during impeachment proceedings.

And aside from conviction on impeachment charges, there is no mechanism set forth in the U.S. Constitution that allows for the removal of a failing president. Impeachment is used against a president only when there is evidence of "high crimes and misdemeanors."

Andrew Jackson and Clinton were both impeached.

Johnson, not Jackson.

1. IF the Democrats win control of the House in 2018, I believe that Trump WILL be impeached.

2. To be removed from office requires 67 votes in the Senate. I find this extremely unlikely. Frankly, I'm not even sure that Nixon would have been removed. Andrew Johnson was a close vote, but there were less Senators needed then (due to less states.) I don't believe that Trump will be removed.

I'm not mathematician, but with an n that low, I don't think you could have that many standard deviations.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Impeachment is not removal from office, it is the trial before the senate, that will result upon conviction of the charges in removal from office.
