Trump won't be impeached unless and until a significant number of Republicans believe that he is hurting them politically. As long as he can keep the base with him, that won't happen, because Republicans on the Hill are more worried about primary challenges than losing in the general.

I didn't think that Trump could unify the GOP around himself in 2016, and obviously that was very wrong. So the idea that Mueller could issue a report about things Trump and his campaign have done that would alienate a significant number of conservatives from him -- that seems like a possibility, but far from a likelihood.

Trump is not the real problem. The real problem is that we share the country with the sizable minority of people who are so committed to their politics that they continue to support him in spite of what everyone knows about him.
