The further Trump goes, the more it will hurt Republican Senators/Reps in contested elections.

This is the future for any president, currently running, unless their party maintains/gains control of both houses.  Our govt is broken.

If that happens, what is the over/under on years in office before impeachment?

If the non-Trump vote coalesces around one candidate after Super Tuesday, it's a new race. If not, Trump likely wins the nomination. It's really that simple. Wait. Until. After. Super. Tuesday.

I was told to wait until South Carolina, Marco would surely win there after taking 2nd in New Hampshire.  Then there was Nevada, a state Marco thought he could win and spent more than other campaigns in. Maybe "true conservative" just isnt that popular this year?

Yeah, you're still beating this drum, and I'm not sure why. I never said South Carolina or Nevada would decide this race or thrust someone ahead of Trump. And as I've already said, some GOP voters are more conservative than others. So again, keep beating that drum but you're not exactly making a profound point.

Considering his personal history, his comments, and actions. . . .what could Trump do to get impeached he hasn't already done?

if trump wins, it would be extremely unlikely that the senate or house reverts to the democrats.  at least not if he wins running as a republican.

Generally I would agree with you. But with Trump, all bets are off. Keep in mind that a significant portion of his support comes from cross-over and non-traditional voters. Both are less likely to vote the party line than traditional GOP voters.

Right. The best way to tap out of a discussion is with an accusation of raaaaacism.

I'm not saying the conservative movement is racist. I'm saying the GOP has relied on racist voters to win elections, and those same racist voters are voting for Trump.

It may not in 2016 but almost certainly would in 2018.  I would imagine a Republican would have to distance themselves from Trump but they may also piss off their base.  Maybe that is just me assuming that Trump would be a complete disaster though.

Our government works far better when it's completely broken, and is a complete disaster when one party controls the WH and legislature  (see the first two years of the b.o. admin)

It would take him about 15 days to set a world record for executive orders. Trump is a piece of crap but he isn't going to pussyfoot around waiting for someone to help him do what he wants; admirable but dangerous as hell.

I don't think trump even wants to do 90% of what he says he will do.  I believe him on trade relations with other countries but the build a wall and Muslims can get out stuff feels like pandering that he would pull back from.  I mean look at all the stuff Obama promised his liberal base and then said LOL nope on.

President Trump will do two types of things. He'll do things that will allow him to make more money. And for everything else, he'll behave like an average Democrat.

I don't think he knows exactly what he wants to do.  It's going to take a lot longer than 15 days.

Just wanted to pay my respects to Yard Dog, he tried hard for his candidate and really cared. Sometimes it just isnt in the cards.

One would think that ProgLibs would kind of like Rubio for pushing immigration reform.   Maybe it fell short of just throwing open the the gates and disbanding INS that so many PL's want (and what we basically have already).
