Which is the greater threat to our democracy? (Original Post)

INdemo
(6,994 posts)2. Impeach and when the Senate is faced with bringing the proceeding to the floor
the people will force the Senate to decide because by that time there will thousands that have already taken to the streets to force a vote in the Senate..
And that is what Democrats need just a Senate vote. This will ignite the voters of what we have in the Senate,53 enablers of corruption and Russian agents.
Then we take the White House,the Senate and maintain the Majority in the House in 2020
The Nazi's only had 37% support in 1932 and Trump only has 37% support in 2019..
Are we to allow 37% of the voters (and probably all of them can't vote because their felons) decide our fate as a Democracy?

Ask yourself how well that worked for Justice Merrick Garland.
I favor voting yes on impeachment.
