I feel Trump acted too quickly in shaking the apple cart - maybe he would have been better off taking a year to build his team/army before making any bold moves.

It is a two edged sword. If he works fast he is being brash and impulsive and if he works more slowly they scream he is not fulfilling his campaign promises.

Impeachment in the U.S. is not as easy as screaming in the streets or calling for a no confidence vote. It also can not be initiated by retired college professors or journalism hacks.

Trump can only be impeached for high crimes and misdemeanors or treason and even then a 2/3 majority of Congress is needed to remove a president. They do not have that majority.

Add to that Trump is sitting on a good majority approval rating. The press would have the world think we were burning down our nation and rioting in the streets ad it is not happening. Trump has a 55% approval rating and it is going up daily.

Trump knew that there would be impeachment threats from day one. It was "plot for overthrow of the government scheme #1" from before the election.

Bill Clinton was as guilty as sin for lying to Congress, and everyone knew it and he basically admitted it, but he was not removed from office. He committed pure treason, but his party was able to block his removal.

What is happening with the media right now is they are losing all credibility and no one is believing anything they say. It is not just the news either, I have stopped watching half of what is on TV as being a biased smear campaign against our nation. The main TV channels have turned into pure propaganda broadcast systems. Anti Trump stuff pops up everywhere and in every station brake, news alert and candy commercial.

It is biased bigotry of the worst kind and reminds me of the propaganda campaigns of the Hitler era, only this time it is the ultra liberal media attempting to overthrow the established government.
