When I was in high school, some kid started a betting pool. He took bets on when Reagan would die. A lot of kids were excitedly placing their bets. It seemed clever for the kid who was doing it---he would collect money and never have to pay out. This was right after Reagan was elected and he died in 2004. I assume the kid was never questioned by the Secret Service or the Vice Squad and was never called into the principal's office.
We never got rid of Reagan. The Democrats went out of their way not to impeach him for Iran-Contra. The press helped conceal his senile dementia. After he left office, stories started appearing about how bad he was. One reporter found that he had no memory of a meeting he just stepped out of.
This is why it's so stupid for Democrats to pin their hopes on Trump being impeached. During the debates, Hillary Clinton evaded questions about the content of the emails Wikileaks released. She was beaming as she claimed that Russia did it and Trump was working for them. She couldn't say it with a straight face, but Democrats took it to heart and have never dropped it.
As with Reagan, we're just going to have to sweat it out for four years. It's not THAT long. He hasn't even started a war yet. But if they're not careful he's going to win a second term.
