House Dem: Impeaching Trump on party lines would 'tear the country apart'

[BeyondGeography]

15. This is how Democrats make me a little crazy

”You don't want half the country to say to the other half for the next 30 years, ‘We won the election. You stole it from us,’” Nadler said, arguing that “you have to be able to think at the beginning of the impeachment process that the evidence is so clear, of offenses so grave, that once you've laid out all the evidence, a good fraction of the opposition, the voters, will reluctantly admit to themselves ‘They have to do it.’”

See, “Gore, Al, 2000 election.” The country was torn apart a long time ago, Jerry.

A fundamentally good man can have an election stolen from him without tearing the country apart but we can’t impeach a disloyal, money-laundering Russian toady, even if the evidence is there. Because that’s what he’s basically saying; nothing will be worth impeachment if we can’t get a few Republicans to agree with us. Well, guess what, none will.

Nadler’s a smart guy, but he embraces the same obsolete form of civility that has limited our ability to govern this country and contain a nihilistic opposition since December of 2000. Forget Republican feelings. Stand for something, ffs.
