I am so old, I remember when having a criminal as POTUS was considered a bad thing.

10. Give in to righteous anger?

It's a constitutional prerogative to remove a president who is unfit for office.

Why frame this issue like Republicans do? That the left is so full of righteous anger that it doesn't reason?

You do realize that this is probably a Fox news talking point too, right?

Maybe a better way to think of it is agree to disagree. You agree that we should signal to a president who has repeatedly undermined Democratic processes, lies publicly and shamelessly about his obstruction of justice, business ties with a foreign enemy, etc. that impeachment is off the table. But hectoring Democrats on a Democratic site to take that view? Can't say I'm with you on that.

All I can say is this three-dimensional chess, long game, or whatever the Pelosi strategy is supposed to be better net a 2020 election win, building on the grassroots efforts that produced the blue wave in 2018. Otherwise, we're in a world of hurt, facing 8 years of Trump and not even standing up to claim our constitutional duty to impeach an unfit president.
