I know nothing of substance will come of it even if the impeachment succeeds but it will do two great things. It will notch Trump down a peg and it will partly restore my current non existent faith in US politics and judicial system to actually function as they're supposed to in a democratic nation.

HAve you not been paying attention to anything over the past four years? This will not 'notch Trump down a peg', as the man is completely shameless and has absolutely zero self-awareness. He is so delusional and distanced from Reality I wouldn't be surprised if, one week after he's impeached, he does a press conference claiming he was still the president and that this was just to appease the fake news or some BS conspiracy.

The man is immune to decency.

That said, I read as much as I could...is Trump actually getting impeached? or is this just another hopeful wish?

I'm not saying it will change him. For that he would need the ability of self reflection.

I'm just saying it will give everyone the chance to respond to each of his statements with "Lol, your ass got impeached, shut up idiot!", which will surely annoy him a bit and give everyone else a tiny bit of satisfaction.

I really don’t understand American politics. It is like a reality TV show for entertainment.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

The middle initial is his most redeeming quality.

Sort of like with George Dubya Bush, who should definitely have been impeached too.

Then you understand US politics really well. It has absolutely nothing to do with actual politics in developed countries. It's closer to sports entertainment than it is to anything else. "Policy" is actually the least important thing in US politics.

If Trump does somehow get convicted and removed from office (which is an extremely long shot), a new VP would need to be selected as well, as per the 25th Amendment. Unlike cabinet and judicial appointments which are only approved by the Senate, the new VP must be approved by a majority of both Houses of Congress, which would mean the Democrats would have to approve of the choice as well.

I say this because of all the stupid memes I see claiming that Pence could simply appoint Trump as a VP, and ones which go further to say that Pence would then resign and Trump would ascend back into the Presidency.

A tragic attempt yes.
