Oh, his ass isn't leaving that place early, that much I'm sure of. Barring a smoking gun - and unless he's as stupidly paranoid as Nixon, we're probably not getting something that concrete - that leaves no one able to protect him, Republicans aren't impeaching their parties President, whether they like him or not.

His re-election chances are harder to predict. Hindsight is 20/20, but 2016 really was a perfect storm for him to be elected. He's not even super popular with conservatives and the displaced factory workers in the Rust Belt - the low key MVP's of putting him the White House - are starting to sound like they're realizing the "outsider" they took a gamble on won't help them either and are giving up. He's got incumbency going for him, as going by history they are typically re-elected, but history would also say a guy like him never would have made it where he did, so who knows. It depends a lot on who they field; if the Democrats try Hillary again, he's got a great shot, anyone else and it's a toss up.

Newsflash for everyone calling the Democrats liberals, socialists et al, you're wrong. The Democratic party is a right wing party. Both major US political parties are right wing, just the Republicans are even further to the right than them.
A lot of us are aware, thanks all the same.
