In reply to the discussion: Is Nancy Pelosi really in the game ? [View all]FoxNewsSucks
(11,696 posts)People voted blue because they wanted Obamacare protected, and the outrages of the lying criminal tRump admin stopped.
Both reasons.
Pelosi is making a mistake by letting MF45 get away with everything. The last time she took impeachment off the table, because they should have faced criminal charges it didn't work out so well. Lewis Libby obstructed, and did such a good job of it that all the BushCo criminals are still walking free today, and the obstructor received a full pardon from MF45.
Thanks to shitbag Bill Barr, we can't rely on the tRump criminals ever facing charges. He stopped Mueller right as the investigation was reaching the tRump inner circle.
An impeachment may be the only way to make all the crimes and outrages public. It's a hell of a lot better for us to say "republicons, led by Moscow Mitch, let them off the hook" than it is for them to say "Trump is so innocent that Democrats had nothing and couldn't even try."
Furthermore, Benghazi brings up another valid point. Why did republicons keep that crap in the news? Repeatedly run the same investigations? Because it hurt Clinton's numbers. Kevin McCarthy accidentally admitted that was the only real reason. It hurt her, and it wasn't even true. Democrats now need to have public hearings for that same reason. It should be even easier, since the truth is on our side.
