True 
Just my two cents then.
Its a very subjective event. The "abuse of Presidential powers" is the rub. The basis for that charge and bringing up a vote to impeach can be whatever Congress decides it is. In Clintons case it was lying under oath. Is lying in and of itself abuse of Presidential powers?
I believe the carefully laid out list of Presidential powers enumerated in the Constitution are what must strictly be used in any impeachment.
If say Grenada was invaded and occupied all to get kickbacks in cash back to the POTUS he used his powers as CiC in enrich himself and thus abuse his specific enumerated powers as President.
It can be a very subjective clause in defining exactly what constitutes abuse of Presidential powers.

They could win but still impeach and convict if enough Susan Collins-types side with the Dems.

Nothing really. Takes a majority in the house to impeach than the show moves to the senate. They hold a trail and takes 67 out of 100 to remove. If can’t get 67 than that’s it. If they do than mike pence becomes President and would appoint new Vice President who needs to be confirmed in the senate. The real crisis would be if trump is removed than pence becomes president and something happened to him before a new VP is sworn in, I’m not sure what happens. Does the speaker become president? Does pence VP choice become VP if confrimed or President ? Can the speaker who becomes President , which might be a dem cancel the pence VP pick ? Can the trump cabinet remove the dem speaker who became president or can that person fire the trump cabinet before being removed. Crazy to think about

More importantly, what will happen if Trump used his super POTUS powers to have the Clintons arrested for their previous crimes? Do the Clintons just admit their guilt, or do they clog up the MSM and tax payer dollars with their usual deceitfulness?
That's a very similar question to the OP's.

What’s the consequences of impeachment other that dishonor?
You have plenty of reading to do on the subject. There is information out there. The impeachment process is well detailed.
Don't look to the Poli board for information, just discussion.
