The impeachment of Trump suddenly looks like much more than just a theory

[TaraJo]

He was impeached. The senate won't take it anywhere, but he was still impeached. Still, it feels almost insignificant. Maybe insignificant isn't the right word, but there are other things that worry me more than whether or not Trump is impeached. I'm more worried about the infrastructure of the party that he climbed to power with and the influence he's had on that party. How he's made them lose all sense of shame. About how he's allowed white nationalist talking points to enter mainstream political discourse. About how their political base takes delight in governing by spite. I worry about the damage he's done to the US on an international level. And even if Trump has a massive heart attack and dies tomorrow, these problems will still be there. Trump is bad, no question there, but there's a problem that goes deeper than him.
