The importance of the midterms this time around is not for impeachment, but for committee leaderships and overall voting over the next two years. Hugely important given the times.

Agreed. And, knowing just how radical some of the "leaders" on the left are, it doesn't bode well any way you want to look at it. Not that the Republicans have been much better.

Personally I am hoping he gets impeached for something to clip his wings. Possible if the democrats win big in the midterms?

@AZ_HighCountry has given a good answer. I think an impeachment is possible if some grave, proven crime is done and/or there is a large Democratic presence in the Congress after the mid-term.
Talking about impeachment is a waste of time. The political divide is so much that if Nixon were to do Watergate now he'd get away from his '3rd rate burglary'. Haha!

What works out best is gridlock for both sides IMO. Either they learn to compromise or nobody gets anything.

Do recall during Trump 1.0, Maxine Waters was quoted as saying "Impeachment is about whatever the Congress says it is. There is no law that can dictate impeachment. What the Constitution says is "high crimes and misdemeanors" and we define that".

So in other words, it's whatever they want them to be. And that, in itself, given the makeup of the Democrat Party for the past 20 years, is concerning.
 
If maduro was captured by SSG

US airstrike destroys dialysis supplies in Venezuela’s La Guaira​

US forces have bombed a medical supplies distribution center in Venezuela’s La Guaira state, destroying a warehouse of life-saving materials for dialysis patients and putting at least 9,000 kidney patients at immediate risk.

During its January 3 military aggression on Venezuela that led to the abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, the United States struck a medical supplies distribution center in La Guaira port, obliterating warehouses belonging to the Venezuelan Social Security Institute (IVSS).

According to Venezuelan authorities, the destroyed facility stored supplies for a national nephrology program serving patients undergoing hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

The IVSS said the attack wiped out essential materials destined for renal patients in the country's main port and condemned the “terrorist character of the US government” for targeting healthcare infrastructure.

Local health officials warned that the destruction directly affects at least 9,000 kidney patients, many of whom depend on uninterrupted dialysis to survive

President Maduro. He had Cuban guards because he couldn't trust indigenous security. Reckon the Cubans were taken out on the sly by Venezuelans before Delta arrived to conduct the kidnap.
 
Any President who cannot rely on his own country to provide security for him is not a real President, but a tool of those who protected him.

Interesting premise which I'd given no consideration.
