Is that just impeachment or also conviction?


You need to look up how "conditional probability" works.

I picture his presidency being four years of a situation room full of people telling him why he can't do things.

Hopefully he doesn't continually fire them and replace them with yes-people.

He'd probably mess up on some constitutional thing or not maybe idk. Very low chance, he's not winning so 1%

Unfortunately, you cannot impeach the President for having a bad hair.

I'd say about 25%. Most recent presidents have committed at least borderline impeachable offenses, but the real trick is alienating both parties to the point that an impeachment conviction seems possible (otherwise, there wouldn't be much for the House to impeach).

On what grounds would he get impeached? Kind of the same as asking "what are the chances that he shaves his head while eating cashews?" Same answer, anyway: I dunno...

It's been an act the whole time to get the white redneck and co. vote - under 10%.

10%  But only because he'll likely die from stress, get assassinated, be overthrown in a coup, or quit in a huff first.

Greater then 50, he is hated by both republicans and democrats, and if he tries to bypass congress when they refuse to pass his agenda they will impeach him for abuse of power and the convict him.

Yeah, but last I checked, being hated by both republicans and democrats does not form the basis on which to impeach someone. Oh, and if you're saying he'll be impeached because he'll overuse the executive order, I don't think he'll come even close to using that mechanism as much as other recent residents of the White House.

Convention really should force some impeachment anti-insurance onto him.

Asking "what are the chances" of something like this happening is stupid, it's unpredictable.

Over 50% if he follows through with the anti-constitutional measures proposed on the campaign trail.

Trump isn't the corrupt type like the Clinton's though I could see him being the 1st presdent who goes through a divorce while in office.    The kicker would be he then marries Megan Kelly..

Very low, similar to all other presidents.

Every Republican has wanted Obama impeached just as Dems did for Bush. It won't happen and never came close. Trump might do further out of presidential element than them but impeachment won't come close.

What? Trump is a democrat. D-DE is perfect for him.

Whether you want to admit it or not, Trump is right of center. And besides, a lot of this is the fault of fearmongering Republican tactics. If Trump didn't capitalize on voter's rage and hate, somebody else would have. Trump's support base is a monster that was at least partially created by the GOP.

He's far likelier to pull a Palin and resign the executive mansion after a couple of years when he gets bored.

Not sure, but the fact that he CAN be impeached is a good mental security blanket ensuring that he won't do something REALLY stupid and fashy.

But if he is impeached, he would sue the U.S. government and the American public.
