This is the Republican's most powerful weapon

8. Tough call

McConnell will block conviction in the senate.

The big question is, will a TELEVISED House impeachment reach those who don't "get it?"

Impeachment will only work if a vast majority of people get a look at reality. Nancy Pelosi doesn't believe they will. That's why she's blocking it. And perhaps she's right.

It was an early 20th century journalist (H.L. Mencken) who said, "No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people." I agree with him. Most people will vote to fuck themselves if the peddler running for office convinces them that it's in their own interest to fuck themselves.

Actually, we just saw that happen in 2016. People cast their votes for an orange creature who told them he wouldn't fuck them, and then fucked them.

Hard to argue with Nancy. She understands that very few pay attention to reality until a few weeks before election. Which means she's cynical about voters ability to "get it." And so am I.

Impeachment is a gamble. Nancy has laid her bet down. History will judge that bet.

She understands that America is teetering on the edge of fascism and she's trying to "save" us by suffering until the 2020 election.

Is she right? What do you think?
