Less than thirty years ago, Bill Clinton got impeached for among other things, perjury and abuse of power. Trump was elected having openly said "grab them by the pussy", mocked a reporter's disability, and again despite being a convicted felon. He's been impeached twice!

This kind of thing just doesn't surprise anymore. What would surprise me is if he doesn't remain for a third term.

Technically he was impeached for being someone Republicans didn't like, he just got caught in an obfuscation that made it easier for them to persecute him.

Trump could curb stomp a toddler and his lackeys would still fawn over him.

I doubt he could lift his foot that high, but your point still stands
