Given Trump's egregiously illegal behaviour, what would Trump (or any future president) have to do to get impeached? Murder with witnesses? Selling off surplus states and pocketing the money? If interfering with witnesses, attempting to suborn your elections, ignoring Congressional subpoenas and all the rest of it isn't enough to be removed from office, what 'high crimes and misdemeanors' are enough?

The hypocrisy of using the word "illegal", not by you, but by the GOP, is that Ken Star, Lindsey Graham, and Alan Dershowitz long ago claimed that impeachment did not have to be about a literal crime, but argued fitness when they went after Bill. Now they are saying "abuse of power" isn't a criminal offense?
The GOP are making shit up now. If Nixon was wrong, Trump is wrong on steroids, meth and bath salts, heroin, crack, and ruffies.
Imagine if Obama had said, "Nigeria, I need you to do me a favor though" regarding McCain or Romney. Turtleman Moscow Mitch and his band of minions would call for blood.
