Strategy and timing are very important and necessary in politics. You can’t waste your time taking action when it doesn’t benefit your cause or when it’s plain to see that it’s a losing move.

I think their strategy now is to give Trump all the rope he wants and tell the public he’s self-impeaching and forcing them to fight back because he wants to destroy Democracy and they want to save it. Then when they do start the impeachment process it will be done by their timing and because he forced them to. Timing that can bring the worst devastation to him and the Republican Party and the best chances of winning the elections in 2020 for the Democrats.

Politics is about winning. Whether it is something good or bad depends on what winning means for the American people.
