    What is lost is it makes it seem political instead of a real crime.

    Impeachment is like getting charged with a crime. Without the follow up Senate conviction to impeachment, it means he wasn’t judged guilty.

      Trump doesn’t listen to courts anyways, so what’s the point? We’ve seen that Senate hearings are just theater as well.

      They already made it a witch hunt the first two times, why not one more? Ignoring his crimes can’t lessen the damage already done, with enough repetition maybe they’ll accidentally catch up with him at some point. The more you have to leverage controlled opposition the less controlled it gets.

      The two party handbook is falling apart because they’re stretching it to ludicrous extremes, look at how shit everyone is polling. American voters and global “Allies” should be cheering for any faint pulse on the USA’s desiccated corpse.
