Exactly. Clinton's impeachment passed the House majority hurdle but never got the 2/3rds majority of the Senate required for the conviction.

Agreed on the Republican majority. I suspect the best the US can hope for is a Republican bloodbath in the 2018 midterms to deliver House and Senate back to Democrat control. I don't believe the chances of that are high though.

Once everyone loses their healthcare they might change their minds

Well, the legislators won't be losing their healthcare :)

If you mean the voters, my understanding is it's a fairly high hurdle from a structural standpoint -- there are far more democrats up for reelection than republicans.

I didn't know that last part. Well, shit. Reagan years are here again...

Even elizabeth warrens reelection looks rough. Im really hope the non wall street democrats get their act together.
