Well, sure, those are the numbers now, but I bet if the Democrats dug further into this with televised hearings with witnesses and everything, the public would quickly rally around the president.

Seriously, look at the polling on Nixon’s impeachment.

Support for removal didn’t cross 50% until late July 1974 — and he resigned two weeks later! pic.twitter.com/Tme6611cUL
