Trump could get impeached and still win re-election. He's not like any other President who would have perished in scandal. He survives everything and he has a strangehold over the Republican Party.

The House can impeach a president, as it did with Bill Clinton, but the Senate is the body that
can convict and remove a president.
The Republicans currently have a slim 51-49 majority in the Senate. They are not going to remove Trump
from office.

It is actually 2/3rds to convict.
There are currently 49 Democrats. Assuming that they all unanimously voted to convict Trump, then 18 Republicans would also be needed to cross the aisle and join them in a conviction vote.
The Senate's Impeachment Role
The United States Constitution provides that the House of Representatives "shall have the sole Power of Impeachment" (Article I, section 2) and that "the Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments .... [but] no person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present" (Article I, section 3). The president, vice president, and all civil officers of the United States are subject to impeachment.
The concept of impeachment originated in England and was adopted by many of the American colonial governments and state constitutions. At the Constitutional Convention in 1787, the framers considered several possibilities before deciding that the Senate should try impeachments.
Impeachment is a very serious affair. This power of Congress is the ultimate weapon against officials of the federal government, and is a fundamental component of the constitutional system of “checks and balances.” In impeachment proceedings, the House of Representatives charges an official by approving, by majority vote, articles of impeachment. A committee of representatives, called “managers,” acts as prosecutors before the Senate. The Senate Chamber serves as the courtroom. The Senate becomes jury and judge, except in the case of presidential impeachment trials when the chief justice of the United States presides. The Constitution requires a two-thirds vote of the Senate to convict, and the penalty for an impeached official is removal from office. In some cases, disqualification from holding future offices is also imposed. There is no appeal.

Yeah. He’s saying the political damage from impeaching Trump and dragging all these witnesses before Congress, etc. will cause him to lose. If they don’t impeach he’ll win.

Yeah like you did.
His formula is interesting because he doesn’t base it on polls and makes his predictions way early every cycle. Doing that since 1984 and getting it right every time lends him a lot of credibility.
Yall are such contrarians for no reason lol.
