WTF? Amy Walters, PBS Newshour " Democrats are ready to move on"

[NRaleighLiberal]

"they are skeptical"

WT everloving F?

[nature-lover]

1. Yeah, ready to move on to the trial!

[frazzled]

2. Context, please

I assume she meant they’re ready to move on and pass the COVID Relief bill by themselves?

[NRaleighLiberal]

3. ready to move on beyond trump. just want to look ahead. let trump

off the hook.

[frazzled]

11. He is not going to be convicted, so

what else do you want them to do? Beat their heads against the wall and ignore everything else?

It’s clear there will not be 17 Republican votes, no matter what. The impeachment is to convince the public, and make the whole thing recorded for history and all posterity to judge.
So yeah, do it and move on ... there’s no other choice, really.

4. Unfortunately (in this case) Amy Walters is usually right.

[NRaleighLiberal]

5. Democrats are ready to move on??? Really?

Maybe pundits are ready, politicians are ready. But Democratic voters?

None that I know. Trump needs to pay, or the utility of laws become obsolete.

[qazplm135]

9. well he's not going to pay

there aren't enough to convict.

So are you really sure you want to make that absolute of a claim that the utility of laws becomes obsolete because a political process didn't work?

13. She didn't ask me

[Walleye]

6. I don't care for Amy Walters', punditry that much. I can just about predict what she's gonna say

[WHITT]

7. More Like

the MSM is ready to move on. Not enough action for them for the extra coverage they'll have to provide.

[callous taoboy]

8. Yeah, I caught that, too. Disappointed.

[Clearly fogged in]

10. ineffable ,/ $

Yes Amy, we're all aboard with that.
Here, hold this for a minute. I'll be right back.

[elleng]

12. She said 'Not the sense of urgency' as before,

ready to turn the page.

[MyMission]

14. Which Dems has she been talking to?!?!

I'd venture to say no one here is ready to move on. And according to polls, Dems not on DU feel the same, as do some non-dems.

What I am seeing, here and other places, is many Dems being discouraged and disbelieving about a conviction. I am not one of them. I think it could happen, after the evidence and public opinion has been made known. Not likely, but possible.

I don't like to see comments that say rethugs won't vote to convict. That's negative thinking.
Call me an infernal optimist! It ain't over til it's over.
