(14,311 posts)I said we likely wont get 20 Republican Senators, but that shouldnt matter to the House.
Take off your D hat for a moment and just look at the situation as an American. It is intolerable that a traitor was installed by a foreign mobster. Every day Trump attacks the Constitution and dares us to do something about it.
Im in a very red corner of a blue state, so I understand not wanting to make the gun owners mad. But dammit, we are right. They are wrong. Republicans dont get to flout the law and still call all the shots. We are on the strongest possible legal grounds, the Constitution itself. We have a clear duty before us. And we must not fear to do the right thing.
If we stand up and fight for what we believe in we might win a few converts. But if we even appear to be afraid or unsure, we signal to the red hats that we dont really believe what we are saying and are not to be trusted.
The impeachment process will lay out the facts of each count of misconduct for the American people clearly. It will be news every night for weeks, and that will help the people understand the extent of Trumps disdain for the law. Senators will have to explain their vote for or against each count, and then have to go home and explain it to their constituents. That is how the system should work.
This is not 1998 and Trump is not Clinton. Gingrich imploded because he led an actual witch hunt. Trump repeats witch hunt but then goes out and commits high crimes!
We have solid evidence, corroboration and even two public confessions, for Christs sake.
So have no fear. The corruption show is just getting started, and it will open the publics eyes.
