With the majority of Dems in the House, it seems inevitable that the House will impeach Trump. This last week of testimony has been pretty incriminating toward what he is being accused of (extortion, quid pro quo). I think it is unfortunate that we are in such a polarized time in our politics that career politicians aren't being able to actually discuss -- is political extortion worthy of removal from office?

President Clinton lied to Congress and was impeached by the House for doing so, then the Senate voted to not remove him and it wasn't along party lines (correct me if I'm wrong) because they determined it wasn't flagrant enough for that consequence. I wish that was where our politicians were right now: is what Trump did worthy of the removal? Rather it gas fallen along party lines and that never benefits anyone.

I respect the process that impeachment/removal proceedings must go through, but it is frustrating to see the diversion of taxpayer funds when our country is struggling as it is with financial inequality.
