The topic of this thread is "the impeachment of Donald Trump." I was, initially, resistant to it for pragmatic reasons, as was Nancy Pelosi. But, Trump's increasingly erratic and dangerous behavior has made it a constitutional necessity. As the Syrian betrayal and Doral grift have demonstrated, he can do too much damage too quickly to be ignored. It's now the only responsible course.

At this point, his conduct as POTUS has become so erratic that I find that my most nightmarish fantasies are given to flight sometimes.

What if he really DOES try to start a world war?
He really could do it, you know.
And at this stage of the game, with him behaving like some caged rabid vermin, there isn't much I would put past him.
And from the look of it, all the grownups have left the building.
