15. Appear political? Like the Senate not having a trial when the President has been impeached?

Like not allowing Merrick Garland to be appointed to the SCOTUS?

Why this fear of "appearing political" if she has a clear goal to be accomplished in what she does? If she demands a fair impeachment trial and defends our Constitution while keeping what the traitor wants from him, how is she doing anything other than her job?

We're going up against fucking FASCISM, here. We need to stop it with this namby-pamby bullshit if we care about our children's futures.
