Nancy Pelosi on Impeaching Trump: 'He's Just Not Worth It'

[LiberalLovinLug]

234. As I said, I am willing to wait awhile longer.

And I also said that if they did, and Republicans in the Senate voted it down, we could use that against them too.

What makes me think they are not "raising bloody hell"? Or didn't from day one as I was referring to? How about "maybe Trump can be a good President" It was never scorched earth against him from day one. My gawd how long did it take just for Dems to use the words "liar" and "racist"? Its not even as if they would have had to invent anything as the GOP had to like Birtherism, or gun snatching. They could have been yelling from every guest appearance about Trump the Traitor, and had good reasons to do so. They could have used the successful aspects of Republican tactics....one being repeating over and over, looking passionate enough about the threat you are railing against. That (unfortunately) is what works in this day and age. Chipping away at his "brand". Waiting for some magical eureka moment from the public, when everyone else catches up to where they are and finally sees the truth, relying on the MSM to do that job for them, has just not worked for them in the past.

But because they did not choose that path sooner, (yes they opposed him, I'm talking about a more intense daily attack plan, even risking coming off as hysterical about the survival of the country as a democracy) then its not smart to now push for impeachment. (where if we'd had been on the war path from day one, the public might even be more behind us by now, ie. if their is smoke there must be fire) Now the smart thing is to continue to wait for the Mueller report and hope there is enough there. It will still be a fight no matter how incriminating it is. Fox News will be working overtime with their spin, as well as Mitch and others.

If that moment happens well before Nov. 2020, Mueller comes down with his report, and assuming the public sees it, then Nancy had better move to impeachment, even if his report is not as damning as we had hoped. Because there is already plenty of material outside of whatever Mueller has, and if he gives them ANYTHING else that could even be used as icing on the cake, then they must go forward. And I just do not have faith that Nancy and some of the top leadership has the cohones to do the brave and right thing and trust the public. I don't get their fear of using impeachment based on how well R's did against Bill Clinton. This is very different than lying about a consensual blowjob. Why do they equate it with Clinton, and not Nixon, who crimes are closer in seriousness to Trumps? I just think their hesitancy and fear of failure will be interpreted by much of the public as yet more proof of a spineless leadership.
