If we lose, fine.
Not really.

Then dare the GOP to acquit him/give him a pass.
They will and we'll have egg on our faces.

I like the way that Adam Schiff characterized it when he said that it would be difficult to impeach him without graphic evidence... I think that's a higher level than the "compelling evidence" that we have (and that we've observed all along).

Schiff said that without "very graphic" evidence an effort to remove the president will probably end in failure.

"In the absence of very graphic evidence, it would be difficult to get the support in the Senate needed to make an impeachment successful. So, again, my feeling is, let’s see what Bob Mueller produces, but the evidence will have to be pretty overwhelming," Schiff said.
On that point I agree. Schiff (and Pelosi) are correct. They both have a practical approach, not an emotional one.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
