Bi-partisanship?

Senate and House Republicans are discounting Nancy Pelosi's comments about the need for "bi-partisanship" because she did not get any votes from the House Republicans for an impeachment inquiry?

However, the House Republicans are not representative of the country as a whole, or even their own Party? The numbers in the polls show that more and more people, including Republicans, now support impeachment and removal.

Therefore, the question of "bi-partisanship" should not be measured by the numbers in the House or Senate, but by the numbers in the general public.
