Lazee attempts to give me a lesson on the impeachment process in the US Congress.

Thanks, Lazee, but I know the process.

You'll recall that the Speaker is Paul Ryan, never a fan of Trump, who had to be dragged into an endorsement.

And if you think that he will risk his position as Speaker to go soft on Trump or block an impeachment movement, when there is strong evidence of impeachable conduct by Trump, you are dreaming.

Meanwhile, in the background, you'll have some of the strongest voices in the Republican Party making sure that Trump gets justice - the Bushes, Romney, many more - to say nothing of the intelligence agencies that he has branded as incompetent or disloyal.

Trump has far more enemies than friends.

And Mike Pence offers a viable, attractive and well-liked alternative to Trump, post-impeachment.

And when the impeachment charges get to the Senate for a trial, Rubio, McCain, Graham, Cruz and a lot more - and 488 Democrats will make sure that Trump will be dead meat.
