If you can't see it, go to YouTube and search for "Need to Impeach". It hits the nail directly on the head.

It's tough because I think a lot of the actual ideas his party has for America-job creation, rigorous immigration standards, non interference etc are fine but as the saying goes, the devil is in the detail.
I think part of Trump's difficulty is he thinks he is still in charge of running one of his companies, where he's totally the boss and he can do whatever he likes. He has got presidency mixed up with dictatorship.
I don't think that he is mentally unstable, I think he is very politically incorrect. His opposites are using that term though to work towards impeachment. It's hard to impeach a person just because you don't like their policies or what they stand for as technically there is supposed to be free speech in USA, so mental instability or illegal activities are about all that is left if they want to remove him from office.
I don't think Hillary Clinton is the answer. If Trump is removed, he should only be replaced by someone within his own party, so that would be vice pres? whoever that is.

Trump will be impeached for "Obstruction of Justice", same as Nixon and Bill Clinton were.
Hillary is not the answer now, or ever was. Mike Pence is the VP and automatically assumes the role of President, when the President is removed.

Was Bill Clinton impeached? I hadn't realised. I remember Nixon was but I've always thought he was just unlucky to be caught out, I bet a lot of others have done similar.
Trump is certainly not popular, but I don't know anything at all about Mike Pence.
Haha reminds me of the old saying (maybe not known in USA) take care of the pennies (pence) & the pounds will take care of themselves.

Yes Clinton was impeached by the House, but not convicted by the Senate. Thus, he was not removed from office.
Nixon resigned BEFORE he was impeached.
Impeachment means "charged" not necessarily guilty.

Ok. For some reason, I always just thought it meant forcibly removed from office, most likely because of some charges.
I think most people here just assume Nixon was impeached but it sounds like what happens here with some politicians, they resign before they are pushed. They've had a pen held to their head, so to speak.
