No one really wants to impeach the president but he just keeps making his corruption impossible to let pass. Every month or so he does something else that even his supporters have difficulty defending in any rational way. He does not care what the law says and it is clear you feel the same as he does, rules are for democrats.No we don't.We are faced with a president openly violating his oath of office...We triple dog dare you to Impeach The President.Trump and his reprehensible supporters should welcome impeachment.Impeachment 13 months before the next Presidential election? With zero probability that the current Senate would vote to convict?
Setting aside the questionable merits, do you think that pursuing this extraordinary procedure (for obvious political reasons) at this time is a worthy endeavor that will not set a terrible precedent?
Remember the "nuclear option" employed by Harry Reid to confirm federal judges? Didn't that set the stage for confirming Supreme Court Justices by a simple majority?
Are you OK with abusing these procedures as long as it benefits your side? What about after future elections when your side loses? Will you take to the streets again?
It would all but guarantee Trump re-election.
Impeachment would backfire on Democrats.
And Trump could crow and strut and boast about how he wasn't convicted.
But Trump and his moronic sycophants are too stupid and arrogant to realize any of that.
Yes there is. Make your choice.... there is no choice.
If you chose to impeach the President because you refuse to accept the Electorate's Choice in 2016, uhhh.... the Electorate is not going to be too happy with you in 2020.
You shouldn't be working to overturn the election, you should be using your brief time as House majority to work for the American People and you guys haven't done squat.
