He can't run for president but he's already running the country.

I for one hope they impeach the president.

And try to end the war in Iran.

There's trickiness ahead and Dems are going to be blamed even more whatever they do, so they might just as well go for the jugular. Well, as far as they can.

They for sure can impeach him. The problem is trying to convict him in the Senate. They don't have the numbers, it takes a 2/3 majority. And I don't think any of the republicans in the Senate have the balls to try to convict Trump. And far too many of them are MAGA assholes themselves.

However there is a plethora of people under Trump that they can go after and easily put under the spotlight. Taking out his foundation will be far more effective at neutralizing him.
