As the House builds momentum to impeach President Trump, conventional wisdom holds that the constitutionally required two-thirds vote in the Senate to remove him would be impossible.

This conventional wisdom is wrong.

BREAKING w/@SharonLNYT: Marie Yovanovitch told impeachment investigators that a top State Department official told her that President Trump had pushed for her removal for months even though the dept believed she had “done nothing wrong" https://t.co/jQ8XTY5eMH

— Nicholas Fandos (@npfandos) October 11, 2019

With Yovanovitch, Hill, and Sondland testifying in the next week, the House Committee should have much of what they need to decide on impeachment. And with Trump's meltdown and evident unfitness for office, at least a few Republicans may be more open to the evidence than before.
