Under the U.S. Constitution, as it should be in any democracy, impeachment is an extraordinary remedy to be reserved for extraordinary circumstances. It is not there just so that the losing Party in the election gets to overturn democratic election results. That would be a horrible precedent which would lead to turning the USA into a "Banana Republic". The U.S.A has survived the Civil War, it can certainly survive Trump.
Again. I agree, fully. Never said or implied otherwise, so I don't see why it is being brought up, really.
