I'm from Korea, and we impeached our president last year, mostly because he declared martial law, but he was also a terrible president, and no one really liked him being there, even his own party.

Why can't the U.S do the same, if Donald Trump is so bad? Why are some Americans even supporting him?

They cannot.

The republican party is complicit, and supports the evil he does, and more than that, he commands their supporters, so it would be political suicide for them.

Why can't the democrats? The republicans control all 4 parts of government and even if they had control over the senate, they would need 60% of the votes, a number that is unprecedented in recent times.

The votes needed for removal is actually 66%, which is even harder, but otherwise I concur.
