A question about the impeachment [View all]

As a New American, with dual citizenship and a political junkie, with 30 years of residence,
Please let me know why all these Republicans are afraid of this president, when if he was convicted he would be powerless to carry out all his threats of retaliation, wouldnt he?
They imo, would keep their seats and could become heros!
Thanks
