I voted no.
According to the constitution, only Congress has the power to bring charges (impeach) a sitting President. The House charges and the Senate convicts.
Unless we get a huge turnover in Congress in November (crossing fingers), an impeachment just won't happen.
Meuller can bring information to Congress, but doens't have the power to charge the President. If Congress chooses to ignore that information (which the Republicans will), there is no other way to have a legal case.
Now, under the 25th amendment, the Vice President and the staff can declare the President unfit for office and the VP takes over. If the President challenges this, it ultimately goes to Congress.
