That was a case where there was actual evidence of wrongdoing. There is no wrongdoing in this case.
And the Republicans were naive enough to believe the Democrats were interested in fair play. Post Clinton, there is no chance that Republicans will support impeachment even if there were actual wrongdoing.

Not really. But hopefully it will piss off Trump to the degree that he starts letting Democrats be prosecuted for their crimes.
There is no reason for this needless magnanimity that the Republicans always extend to the Democrats after a big Republican victory.

Trump will be president for eight years. The Republicans will hold the White House for 20 years.

The Republican thinking, according to the report, is that this gives the Republicans in office a full year for the public to get used to President Pence and the GOP should not suffer too badly in the midterms. If Trump hangs on well into 2018, the electorate will have fresh in their mind that that it was a Republican president who was so embarrassingly unfit for the office.
The supposed report is fake.
