As I’m sure you know that the Reich on the right, the Republican Reich, is virtually always wrong, and the Reich on the left, Robert Reich, is virtually always right.  The treasonous conspiracy by Putin’s perverted puppet and his minions is unraveling at a prodigious rate.  Robert Reich thinks that we had better understand the impeachment process, since we may need the information sooner than we think.  He’s right!<\/font><\/p>\n

It won\u2019t be easy to impeach Donald Trump. No president in American history has ever been convicted on articles of impeachment. <\/p>\n
