"Wide majority of Americans oppose impeaching judges who rule against Trump, new poll shows"
...from the attached article...
----------------------
A wide majority of Americans –– 70% –– oppose impeaching federal judges who are slowing down President Donald Trump’s agenda as the idea continues to gain traction among Republicans in Congress, according to a poll released Thursday morning.
In addition, 83% say the president must obey US Supreme Court decisions, the Marquette Law School poll found. (That view holds across party lines, including 78% of Republicans, 82% of independents and 90% of Democrats.)
---------------------
Sooner or later, GOP lawmakers are going to have to make a decision...side with Trump, or keep their jobs. They are already seeing how their constituents feel about it at local Town Hall Meetings.

Not for simply ruling against him
If the ruling makes no legal sense and is just to disagree with him on political grounds, then I could see it as a reason for possible impeachment.
Judges, in my opinion, should be making sound legal judgements based on current law and precedent. If that's not the reasoning they used to come to their judgment, then they aren't doing their job, and that should be grounds for impeachment or whatever review process judges go through.
Do you agree with my general opinion?
Because they are legal opinions, that's why any side has the ability to appeal it.
If any of these cases are taken up by the SCOTUS and rules against Trump, the admin needs to STFU about judges needing to be impeached on the local level.
I understand there is an appeal process
The only one who appeals is the one who loses the court case.
The point of the thread was impeaching judges, and people being against that just for ruling against Trump. If these judges are getting appealed on decisions, and the appellate courts continuously overturn the same judges who only judge against Trump, then that would deserve a review and possibly an impeachment. Even if it had been happening against Biden, I would say the same thing.
And yes, if the SCOTUS rules against Trump, that's part of the whole checks and balances, so the admin should abide by the decision and shut up.
The judges are not local and are ruling based on their leftist ideology, not the law.

Cain't be. The Supremes are extremely far right, Paw.
