Evil Turtle is worried about his own job because his approval level has gotten pretty bad in his own state. However, he probably thinks that that's not because more people are more aware of how evil he is, but because he hasn't been evil enough.
I hope that Trump will become the first President to be impeached twice.
There is the current impeachment.
However, Trump has many other issues to deal which could result in future impeachment:
His immigrant family splitting policy,
His false charity work,
His false education work via his Trump University,
His payoff to Stormy Daniels and other women, and
His involvement with the Russians (this issue is still going on).
By impeaching on other stuff but not those, which they've been aware of longer, the controlling Democrats (primarily Pelosi) have already given all that other stuff the official "not impeachable offenses" stamp of approval.
And it's also either a massive tactical blunder or an outright tactical betrayal, depending on whether one explains Pelosi's history of constantly rolling over for the Republicans as incompetence or deliberate servitude. We know that the Republican establishment hates Trump and would like to have a way to get rid of him and stop his takeover of their party, but haven't seen a clear path to do so. What the Democrats should be doing is trying to find a way to help them with that (if they had any clue at all about the concept of strategizing instead of just walking straight ahead with no plan). And having more articles of impeachment would have helped, because it would have opened a path for the more scared Republicans in the Senate to vote no on most of of the articles but yes on just one and say "I was with him on most of this, and it's terrible that they did this to him on most counts, but there was just that one little thing that went too far". So naturally, of course, Pelosi went out of her way to make sure that that path would be unavailable to them.
Trump's going down in history as one of just a few impeached Presidents in American history, and his "opposition" is going down in history as the most useless, feckless excuse for an "opposition" in American history.

One little aspect of the impeachment conversations has been fascinating in a way I didn't expect: the supply of people going to great hyperbolic extremes, even in otherwise perfectly well-reasoned posts, to wildly overstate how utterly,
absolutely impossible it is for the Senate to convict. I can't think of any other subject on which I've seen so much pretense of such
absolute certainty outside of religions, and not even usually in religions except when they're making a presuppositionalist argument. Yall have turned yourselves into the Sye Ten Bruggencates of politics!
