The Republican Party is mounting its own impeachment inquiry into President Trump, but they face two major problems. First, the inquiry is unlikely to garner much support from the public, with recent polling indicating that Americans support the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry by a wide margin. Second, the GOP itself is divided on the issue of impeachment, with some members of Congress arguing that proceedings should move forward and others arguing that it is a waste of time. The GOP is starting off on a shaky political ground and it remains to be seen how the situation will develop.
