Former Nixon White House counsel John Dean characterized the first day of public impeachment testimony against President Donald Trump as both thorough and damning, saying House Democrats already have more than they had against Richard Nixon to impeach him. Just on all accounts.
Dean, who has become a vocal, voluble critic of Trump, made his comments to a massive, nine-person panel during CNNs AC360. Dean famously turned against his former boss and became the star witness in the House impeachment investigation of Nixons misconduct in the Watergate scandal.
John, I mean, given what you saw today, did this move the needle for any Republican senators who are watching? CNN host Anderson Cooper asked Dean.

moral cowardice and apathy won't get rid of the amoral pig.

Oh wait, was there some kind of trial... ?
92 million eligible American voters didn't even show up in 2016. That's 30 million than voted for either major party candidate.
I will continue to fear for my country as long as criminals and morons are in charge.
