Re “For G.O.P., Threat of Impeachment May Spur Voters” (front page, April 9):

It is particularly disappointing that in the campaign for the November elections, the G.O.P.’s strategy will be the scare tactic of possible impeachment of the president should the Democrats win the House. Have they nothing else to present to the electorate? Like plans and ideas for the real problems and issues facing the country?

That the G.O.P. and its supporters will be using words such as “coup” reveals their fear of having genuine and substantive discussions regarding policies and programs.

To the Editor:

Many Republicans, both right-wing and moderate, are totally disgusted with President Trump and would much prefer the true ideologue, Mike Pence, as their president. I suspect they are kneeling in prayer for impeachment and conviction. They may be so upset that they could hold their noses to vote Democratic and for possible impeachment.

Conversely, there are many Democratic voters, especially on the left, who fear a purely ideological right-wing Pence presidency to the point of joining Republicans in opposing impeachment. This would militate against Republican fears of losing their president, and makes the possibility of Democrats taking Congress more probable. Go figure.
