Political expert predicts that Trump will be impeached

Homenews

Stranger things have happened.

Alan Lichtmanhas predicted every presidential election correctly since 1984 - including this one. He is 9/9 with presidential elections, and he has now predicted that President elect Donald Trump will be impeached. Lichtman has said that there is a "very good chance" that Trump will be forced from office. He told US TV show 'Erin Burnett Out Front' that this is his gut feeling. He went on to say: "First of all, throughout his life he has played fast and loose with the law. He has run an illegal charity in New York state. He has made an illegal campaign contribution through that charity. He has used the charity to settle personal business debts. He faces a RICO lawsuit." https://twitter.com/OutFrontCNN/status/798692000803463169?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Impeachment is rare in America, with Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton being the only two to face it so far, and even at that, both were acquitted. The potential for Trump's impeachment is there, due to his controversial past, and if it is to happen, Alan Lichtman might be the first to say "I told you so."
