idk about that for one simple reason: no matter how much democrats like to state the opposite: the president is above the law. He can appoint supreme court judges, he owns the DOJ, and the senate will vote purely on politics. If GOP senators can get away with shutting down impeachment politically, they will. Trump can do anything - as long as republican voters are largely ok with it, the senate will stop impeachment.
The only way impeachment can hurt Trump is the same way impeachment hurt Clinton: by the optics. He got impeached - that sounds bad! And if you're lucky, enough of them stay home on election day.
