The nation anxiously awaits the outcome of the biggest political drama since 1998, when President Bill Clinton was impeached. Now, President Donald J. Trump faces the same fate. 

The egotistical Trump at first mocked House Democrats' taunts that they would impeach him, but as their efforts began to bear fruit, Trump's boastfulness turned to rage and a vow to best his enemies.

At the peak of this epic political battle, are we witnessing the death throes of the Trump Republican presidency, or the revival of a Democratic party that had lost its nerve?
