Ask HN: Strictly business question – how a Trump impeachment impacts business?

2 points by rrggrr ↗ HN
Really hoping the personal opinions and polarity can be avoided as I ask this question. Many of my clients started investing heavily when Trump was elected. Some were avid supporters. Others simply felt a pro-business environment justified additional hiring, spending, etc. Setting aside the many ways in which he has/may have offended or enacted bad policy... how might the shock and tumult of impeachment impact your business, if at all?

An impeachment is not a conviction. Bill Clinton was impeached, and that doesn’t seem to have hit the economy particularly hard.

A conviction, now, that might be different. The best comparison in modern history might be to Nixon’s resignation.
