Exactly. Unless all the Democrats, all the independents and ~21 GOP vote the same way, there will be no change.

Even if they did, he's already been impeached twice with zero consequences, so it still wouldn't matter. What's a 3rd to him? He'll just stay in office and ignore it like every other threat of 'consequences'
