There’s very little chance that impeachment proceedings would get the two thirds it needs in the senate to find Trump guilty. The republicans control the senate, so I understand why she wouldn’t feel confident going for it. Plus there’s the added history of Clinton becoming more popular after the impeachment attempt against him failed. If Trump were to have to deal with impeachment proceedings, I don’t think that it would mirror what happened with Clinton. But, who knows, if the attempt fails and Trump takes a year long victory lap closer to the election, it could rile up his base again.

I’m not really sure where I stand. I don’t think they should hold back from impeachment just because it might not work. It’s their job to act as a check and balance on the presidency, so they should move forward if they feel there is reason. But, I also don’t want him having anymore ‘silent coup’ talking points to run his campaign on.
