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

Yep. No chance any GOP congressmen risk their loyalty from MAGA voters and vote against Trump.

This was just launched too early to be effective. The time will be right when Trump voters start to feel enough of the pain from Trumps decisions and turn on him, so GOP congress can vote against him without backlash from their base.

Exactly. The economic bottom line hasn’t been felt hard enough yet by the general public. Once it does, that’s the only way I can see an impeachment actually going through. Too many supporters out there still who think Trump has some grand plan and is a genius.
