He is a threat to national security and should be removed from office.
However, when we hear that 95% of the Republican Party support him, we should not assume that is the same Republican Party that voted for him in 2016. The results in the 2018 midterms was not a good sign for Republicans, in my opinion. Trump wanted that election to be about him. If it was, he lost in a landslide.
He could lose half the Republican Party and still have 95% support from the remaining Republican Party. But, I think I am more heartened by the midterm results than the Democratic Party is, in general.
But, you are correct that he has not heard a peep of a word of admonishment from the GOP.

Yes I do. Trump will pummel us for not impeaching. He'll do the same if senate doesn't convict.

I do not think that an impeachment would happen AFTER Trump won a second term

Republicans in 2019 still think Nixon was treated unfairly and shouldn't have resigned
