Until we impeach, Trump's crimes are on _US_

The reason I want Pelosi and the House Democrats to impeach is that until we do that, McConnell is not responsible for Trump's crime spree.

As soon as we impeach, it is no longer on Democrats hands to hold Trump accountable. Right now, we are failing to hold Trump accountable, and if we don't do everything in our power, including impeachment, then we will (and should) be held responsible for Trump's crime spree. All he has to do is say "no one stopped me. no one even tried"

We NEED to get Trump and the responsibility for Trump off of our hands. We NEED to make Trump the Senate and McConnell's problem, NOT OURS.

Let's get this treasonous asshole off of our books and put him where he belongs, on the complicit Republicans, instead of being complicit in enabling him.

Please, please, call your representatives and urge impeachment yesterday, if not sooner.

they hold the power in the Senate to stop this madman, and they are either too afraid, compromised most likely, or cowards who won't put country before party, or should I say the trump cult.

don't get me wrong, I'd love the GOP to put a ton of pressure on Trump to follow the law(we can dream) , but what can they threaten him with at the moment?

Every attempt at holding tRump accountable from hearings to subpoenas has been rebuffed and outright ignored. I get that some don't like the slow process of it all and it's frustrating as hell. But that doesn't mean they're not doing the job.

The Dems aren't complicit and tRump's crimes aren't on them or us. I think they could do a better job of it and not let tRump suck all the oxygen out of the room every single fucking time.

It's on tRump, his followers and the complicit repubs who are enabling him and remaining silent through it all.
