If the democracts win in the midterms, does this mean impeachment for Trump?!

Since I’m ignorant in political procedures, I’m curious about this possible event.

remember just because someone is impeached, does not mean that person is or will be removed from office. It would take more than an impeachment to remove Mr. Trump from office. Clinton was impeached for lying, yet he rode out his full term.

@Wubaloo That's because the Senate didn't reach the 2/3 vote necessary to remove him from office. So he was indicted but acquitted.

@Wubaloo i thought the senate failed to get enough votes to impeach clinton on both charges?

The impeachment of Bill Clinton was initiated in December 1998 by the House of Representatives and led to a trial in the Senate for the impeachment of Bill Clinton, the 42nd President of the United States, on two charges, one of perjury and one of obstruction of justice.[1] These charges stemmed from a sexual harassment lawsuit filed against Clinton by Paula Jones. Clinton was subsequently acquitted of these charges by the Senate on February 12, 1999.[2] Two other impeachment articles – a second perjury charge and a charge of abuse of power – failed in the House.
@Wubaloo true Terry! However, it seems to me that Trump has more than lied according to what Mueller has in him....?!

@Shewolfiie69 I would believe that completely.. Trump has more skeletons in his closet than most and its going to be hard for him to continue his daily routine of lie and attack to keep people distracted enough to not pay attention to who he really is.

@Wubaloo do you think Trump will get impeached? i have the idea those dirty politicians will hold the impeachment stick over his head and use it as leverage to make Trump do as they please...

i thought he would early on.. but the more days go by, the more it looks like its going to take more than impeachment. I cannot imagine this president being more than a one-term phenomenon. And before anyone labels me as a hardline Clinton supporter, I didn't think she was qualified for this job either. It was most disconcerting that the Democrats and Republicans could only come up with these two people as their best choices.
