I'd like to get it on the record so I can use this as a defense when the next democratic president does it.
The evidence that would take this from "hearsay" to "no doubter" territory in my mind would be the actual word-for-word transcript Trump has hidden behind the top secret clearance level, not the one released to the public. If it matched exactly what the 8 witnesses said under penalty of perjury, I'm not really sure how you could keep denying it any more.

It has nothing to do with strong national consensus. High crime and misdemeanors threshold could not be met.
When the articles failed to include bribery, the impeachment lost all credibility. Everyone realized this was complete bullshit...this is when they pushed bullshit like “you don’t need a crime to impeach”
What you really need to be concerned about is this lays a foundation impeachment simply based on one side hating the president. Because this is exactly what’s happened.
Look up dems talking impeachment immediately after trump won...you don’t have a problem with this?
