Republicans want to investigate Biden or even impeach him. Is that what 2022 voters want?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Fortune is smiling on Republicans these days. Inflation and gas prices are high, the baby formula supply is low, violent crime is rising, and you can participate in a failed coup to keep a defeated president in power and still have a good chance of winning control of Congress.

In the fantasy world of the GOP, the U.S. Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021, is a nothingburger that needs to be forgotten ASAP; Democrats are responsible for all of America’s problems; and they are derelict in not fixing them. Yet, sadly for Americans coping with all of this and for their own electoral prospects, Democrats cannot control supply-chain disruptions that affect the whole world – from the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns in China to the Russian war on Ukraine.

And guess what? Republicans wouldn’t be able to, either.

Trump deserved both impeachments

So it's no wonder that their Plan A is attack, attack, attack. Two-thirds of Republicans in a poll last month said President Joe Biden should be impeached, and the calls are coming from all over the Donald Trump universe: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, because Biden "has the gall to claim the 2nd Amendment isn’t absolute"; Trump adviser Steve Bannon, because “Trump won the presidency” and Biden is "illegitimate”; former Trump White House aide Peter Navarro, for “Ukraine, the southern border, all manner of things he is guilty of”; and writer Mollie Hemingway, because Biden pleaded for new gun safety laws after massacres in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas.

1. A lot of them do want him.

2. Doesn't matter what the majority wants

Whenever Republicans win, they simply move forward with whatever they have on their agenda. They don't care if the people want it or not, they won an election, and they're going to do as they please. That much is quite obvious. Did they campaign on impeaching President Biden? Doesn't matter; they'll do it anyway and act like that was the main plank of the party platform. If you don't like it, tough; they're in power now and the will of the people can go suck an egg.

Democrats, on the other hand, stake out wildly popular ideas like raising taxes on the wealthy, full access for women to health care, equal rights for LGBTQ+ persons. But when they win, Democrats are reluctant to move ahead on their agenda, no matter how explicitly they said "A vote for me is a vote for equality" or suchlike.

That's how the former guy got to name three Supreme Court Justices: The utter shamelessness of Republicans and Democrats' reluctance to call them out on their flaming hypocrisy.

3. If....

If progressives throw a hissy fit because they didn't get student loan forgiveness, or moderates have a hissy fit because of inflation, than endless investigations of of Biden and Democratic members of Congress is what we will get.

4. Laid in to a staff writer at a local Lefty blog who opined this AM that Dems

had done "diddly squat" for their constituents.

A $1400 Pandemic Relief check? that's NOTHING? And an Impeachment over Hunter Biden's laptop is SOMETHING?
