6. He has been carrying their water without shame

Right to work, Medicaid cuts, killing protections against discrimination..... He has given them everything they want. What he did was so egregious that I think they truly are outraged. Blatently exploiting veterans for political gain. And they believed the woman who gave a very detailed description of sexual assault committed by him. Now, another woman has come forward. This is not sexual misconduct it's flat out rape documented in a house report.
Meanwhile, Claire Mcaskill is running for re-election and she has made it her mission to address sexual assault in the military. Being a Navy seal who sexually assaulted women, and exploited veterans makes him a huge liability. The GOP senate candidate has been relentlessly calling for Greitens to resign. If calling for his impeachment is a gimmick, I think it would be about protecting their senate candidate. Getting him out of office is gravy.
