(58,785 posts)it could succeed possibly be coming from a preemptive plot to derail the Democratic house investigations being prepared against not just Trump but various very powerful Republicans?
If you want to suspect something, suspect that. I told you after another of your posts, Bait, that one of your notions was standard Republican/Russian "tell a lie often enough and they'll believe it" rhetoric. They've been soaking the nation in that very phrase.
May I ask, have you read or heard somewhere that the Democratic leadership may be plotting betrayal by refusing to impeach? That the Republicans aren't the only ones betraying our nation, that the Democratic Party is complicit? If that's not just your getting carried away on your own, I'd like to check that out.
Itm, maybe imagine over half the nation outraged what was seen as a corrupt partisan attempt to remove the president in the senate (and that would fail right now). It's not only Republicans who disbelieve Trump-Russia -- there's still much suspicious doubt about how real all this is on the left also. Now imagine much of the nation believing that the Democratic investigations of others in their leadership were just as corrupt and phony as the attempt to remove the president.
All this would of course be carefully organized by the right, with plentiful media support. None of these powerful oconservative leaderse intend to go to prison, they'd burn the nation down first. And, critically, this kind of giant misstep would be likely to help them regain the power they just lost and more in 2020. House, senate, presidency, states.
We MUST have the support of a majority of the people to proceed. Trump trying to nuke NK or invade Mexico would also do, because that would create that support in short order afterward.
