(10,828 posts)Either way we go, there are risks of over reaching or twisting the perceptions in the opposite direction. However, I think if our legislators do their homework (I'm confident they will), demand and obtain necessary documentation and conduct serious interviews of the players, we'll be laying the groundwork for impeachment proceedings and giving the public a chance to understand the narrative of events. As the mountain of evidence grows, I think the electorate is more likely to support impeachment proceedings, all the while Trump's support numbers slide into the mud.
I'm certainly not against impeachment. If anyone deserves impeachment, it's Donald Trump. I'd just like to see us have better conditions on the ground (better public support numbers and sliding Trump approval polls) before we fully open the can of worms. Because in all likelihood, once impeachment starts it will use up all the oxygen. We need all our ducks in a row.
We aren't that far apart on the issue, better.
