The system worked, the accused was acquitted and became stronger because of it. That should deter partisan impeachments in the future. My point being is that 3 times in US history now it has made the President stronger. It always backfires. Let them try it again. No sense cutting Wile E.Coyote's credit line with Acme.

Perhaps Trump did - but the process itself served its purpose - (they never ever expected the POTUS to actually be removed from office - what net even their objective)

THIS 'impeachment' was merely a campaign TACTIC undertaken to give their conspirators in the MEDIA to assist them in overtaking the SENATE

THIS 'impeachment' was nothing more than another taxpayer funded campaign TACTIC by the DEMs - same as the Mueller 'investigation' - tax-payer funded oppo-reseach effort to be used to take control of the House = and that one succeeded. ===> next stop = take over the Senate and completely neuter the Trump administration for the next 4 years.

The DEM ideology is completely anti-American - finding ways to use our constitutional protections as WEAPONs against the moral core of good American citizens.

POTUS is personally OK - but they are seeking to sabotage the foundation of his administration.

While I agree that it helped Trump in this instance, it's a gross abuse of power and a tremendous waste of taxpayer funds and resources. There's no telling how many millions of dollars that this and the Muller hoax have wasted. They are supposed to be there to do the business of the people, not to use the power of the government as their own vendetta hit squad.
