What if Pelosi, et al. can build Trump & the GOP's misdeeds into our road to the Senate?

How long did the Watergate Hearings take? I think a year or more. Note I didn't say Nixon Impeachment Hearings, but Watergate Hearings. The crimes are being revealed daily now to those willing to dig...soon they will all become major narratives as long as investigative hearings continue. Pelosi will continue pounding Dem's message on the great legislation they're writing and the Republican Senate is refusing to take up. Pretty soon the evidence piles up to the point until it's drowned out all other conversation. But Pelosi doesn't give McTurtle the opportunity to create a kangaroo trial in the Senate and vindicate Trump, as he would do. Then Dems make sure every eligible voter in America knows that the tool necessary to remove Trump and the racists and the anti-abortion lunatics from control is to take back the Senate. Just my thought (fantasy) for the day...

the hole drags his congressional supporters in with him. Those who manage to avoid it will be joining the Dems in a national call for impeachment.
In my best world.

She's giving MF45 and his crack team of criminals enough rope to hang themselves. She is following procedural rules and norms so that as the evidence trickles out and is made public, it will be clear that impeachment is unavoidable. If there are Senators who vote not to convict, it will take some of them down too because they've aligned themselves with a traitor or are found to be traitors themselves. I have full confidence in her and what she's doing.

Ms. Warren and Ms Harrris being on the campaign trail gives them other fish to fry and they are two the people's strongest voices in the Senate. On the flip side, elections are by far the easiest way to get rid of him.

Nancy can't do his job, and for the most part neither can he. Thanks to stupid, irresponsible voters and nonvoters, and of course the badmouthers who encourage both.
