Five-0, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37 on twitter)
It must frustrate you
Our pesky constitution
Seperation of powers
You'd be stupid to fire him
He's got Chin Ho and Danno
Crawling up your past
White House Wo Fat
Your destractions wont last
Dragnet closing in
Tweets are all you have
Deflection and blame
Mueller is not afraid
You are the robber
In the San Fransisco diner
Make Mueller's day
If you try to fire
Indictments handed down
"Book em" we have now
I hope they flip on you
It will not be too soon
Five-0 is protected by
Seperation of powers
Though you may try
To erode them by the hour
Our nation is not
Run by a despot
Your tweets will not save you
I hope you're left to rot
Rot in impeachment
Hubris takes a fall
Seperation of powers
Will protect us all
Comey you did fire
But that does not matter
Five-0 never gives in
Because of seperation of powers.
Mueller is our modern
Very real McGarrett
He wont back down
You will never scare him
Listen Nixon Wo Fat
There's sugar in his cup
The waitress tipped him off
Harry wont get lost
You've made your dead pool
It's a laundry list
Five-0 on your ass
I am glad you are pissed
President Narcissist
Will be forced to understand
Separation of powers
Is why America exists.
(end)

Even if Trump is impeached, we get President Pence, who's just as bad. He just makes it sound prettier. Which may make him worse.
Still, would be nice to see Donny going to Jail. Along with his little brats, and most of his cabinet. Throw Pence in too for complicity, and most of the Republican party who let this sham go on for so long.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.

On economics and local social issues sure. But you wont see him in office talking or tweeting like Trump, and as much as I hate Pence I don't see him as triggering a nuclear war.
Pence may be an asshole bigot but he has a filter and I do think it would be far easier to keep him on a leash.

Impeachment is not a legal process - it is a political process. While the WLB has republicunt majorities in both houses the politics of the situation will argue against impeachment. Still, arresting his cronies and getting them to flip is the way to go. The WLB is a criminal and has been for a very long time. He only recently became a traitor.

Just to be annoyingly pedantic, if Trump is impeached, he won't necessarily be removed from office. An impeachment is simply a formal accusation of a crime committed, similar to an indictment. Trump would have to stand trial on the charges in the impeachment and be convicted before he could be booted.

I think Pence would be utterly ineffective. It would be like the oval office being vacant until the next election. Not a good situation but he would be considerably less likely to use nuclear weapons haphazardly. He wouldn't empower the bigots and other idiots like Trump does and he wouldn't be as bad of an embarrassment to the rest of the world.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I am a pragmatist.
Prison would be great. But all I really want is for him for the investigation get too close to him, or his family to the point he cops out to some "health problem" and steps down.
Nixon didn't spend a day in prison but what 45 has done is far worse, just on the rhetoric alone.
45 is really scummy. I would not surprise me one bit if he threw his children under the bus to keep his job.

You've mentioned this a couple of times. What - specifically - has Trump done that is 'far worse'?
