Fox & Friends to Feature Republican Funded Ad Urging Trump Impeachment

The conservative group, Republicans for the Rule of Law (RRL) has developed an ad urging for politicians to stand up to the president. The group also plans on hitting Trump where it hurts and airing the commercial during the broadcast of one of his favorite shows, Fox & Friends.

Chris Truax, a spokesman for the group, told Newsweek:
“Everybody — Republicans and Democrats but especially Republicans — need to step up and say, ‘Look, this is bigger than the politics of the day, this is about our democratic institutions.’ If we don’t defend them, that will have an impact on our country for decades to come. President Trump still does not want to admit that this happened and that’s wrong, absurd and dangerous. Republicans need to stop enabling this behavior.”

The 30 second clip, set to air next week, will feature clips from the former Special Counsel’s Wednesday statement. The spot will end with the line, “Mueller did his job, now it’s time for members of Congress to do theirs.”

our chances of taking the Senate (and Presidency)... I am no fan of that crowd of never-Trumpers but I do believe they are mostly sincere in opposing Trump, so I don't buy that theory. I also don't believe that impeachment, even if it doesn't remove Trump, will hurt us if done right.

If I'm reading you wrong, please correct me...

But, run the ad. Let some Fox News viewers at least start questioning what is being "fed" them.
