No. I mean, I don't even like they guy, but it's pretty obvious that the impeachment isn't about upholding the sanctity of the office. It's a political card that they're holding at the moment and intend to play closer to the election to try to impact the election. I wouldn't support that.
I would have supported impeachment of a president who lead a spying, theft, kidnapping conspiracy against the opposing party or a president who committed a adultery in the White House by seducing a young White House intern.
