Summary

Trump Is Raising MILLIONS Over Impeachment Scandal, But Support For Impeachment Is GROWING. In the several days since Democrat Nancy pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump, his reelection campaign has raised over FIFTEEN Million dollars.Not only that, but Republicans have seen a 608% increase in donations for congressional campaigns and Trump saw $50,000 from NEW Donors.From the look of this how could we assume impeachment is bad for Trump? Even as polls being to show a major swing in favor of impeachment Trump's base seems mostly unwavering. His aggregate approval is relatively static and so is his favorability rating.Trump will not be impeached. Mitch McConnell would not allow it and there are not enough anti trump politicians in the Senate to reach a two thirds majority for conviction.In the end Trump will rally his base, accused the Democrats of being single minded, and raise millions of Dollars.Here is the catch, Democrats Are ALSO raising millions. While not as much as Trump they have still brought in around 4.6M dollars.But perhaps this too was part of Trump's plan. If his base gets too arrogant they may not show up on election day feeling that they can't lose.It's hard to know for sure but in the short term the cash is looking good for the President. And as for the far left, anything that could known out Joe Biden is beneficial as well. It seems like all sides might be very happy with this turn of events.

0:00.0	We're starting to see the effect of the calls for impeachment against Donald Trump by the Democrats.
0:05.2	The story two days ago was that Trump raised $13 million after Pelosi made the announcement.
0:12.2	Actuality, the GOP raised $1 million in six hours, but we actually have an update from this story.
0:18.7	You know, this is one of, I see people sharing it, it's old. It's old. It's actually $15 million.
0:23.9	So here's a thing. Nancy Pelosi said in her announcement or at some point,
0:29.4	that she believes Trump is trying to go to the Democrats into calling for his impeachment
0:34.0	because it will rally his base. And it will. And it has. Case in point, $15 million.
0:40.4	I think there's a lot of reasons why this is very, very good for Donald Trump and why it was a huge
0:45.6	mistake. However, polls are turning against Trump. A Harris X poll. And an NBC, I'm sorry, an NPR poll
0:53.8	are both showing that support for impeachment is way, way up. And this is mostly from people who are
0:59.0	unsure. Now this is bad because these are polls I've cited before. And look, you can choose not to
1:04.5	trust them. I'm going to lean towards trusting these polls. I've cited them in many occasions.
1:08.4	And look, the polls may remain at people wrong, but here's the point. The people who are turning on
1:12.8	Trump or who are who are not joining and calls for impeachment were those who were unsure before.
1:17.8	This is not Trump's base. Trump's base is being fired up. I believe the big strategy here might be
1:23.5	to get people who Trump knows will support him. And I've said this before that Trump is willing
1:29.7	to damage himself. Like when he called out the squad and made offensive comments, it does hurt him
1:36.0	among certain voters. But it does rally his base. And it causes more damage for the other side.
1:42.3	I believe the impeachment may hurt Trump in some respects. But as a whole, it's going to be really,
1:47.2	really good for Trump in his base. And I'm at limit, limit, limit, let me break it down. Let's start
1:51.3	by reading about the $15 million in donations as of today since they started this. And I want to
1:57.0	look at the polls. But here's the thing. While the polls may show danger ahead for Trump and
