...it must still remain in an aggressive and offensive investigative mode against this lawless Administration. It requires 24/7 vigilance.
The truth must be ascertained. Witnesses must still be called before the Committees. Documents must continue to be subpoenaed. Oversight is a necessity.
Impeachment must remain on the table. Someone has to protect our country. The Republicans are obviously incapable.
If more evidence is uncovered, there should be no hesitation about impeaching Donald J Trump.
There is still plenty of evidence to uncover.
David Frum has written that Democrats would be wise to try and win back the Senate and be prepared for an impeachment proceeding if there is a 2nd Trump term? They should look at the impeachment issue in a more long-term manner?
The one message that must be sent to this White House: The "watchdogs" are watching and the White House will follow the law or else.

IMHO, it's still premature to impeach him. We haven't even scratched the surface of his financial crimes.

The punditry that keeps saying impeachment opens magic doors is wrong

Thats not to say I do not think we could not get the votes but why should we stick our necks out to help the Repugnants get rid of Trump? After all their craven cowardice on not doing anything about him with their majority in the Senate is causing them to have to struggle in elections in areas where 10 years ago they would have won easy.

impeach then the G.O.P. will have to remove Trump. The G.O.P. cannot survive the next
election if the Democratic Party does not try to impeach.
The House should continue its great work on the issues that concern the voters, mainly
health care. Do not be distracted.

(16,371 posts)I strongly disagrees. Could you, perhaps, supply the facts that have led you to these conclusions, because it strikes me as wishful thinking more than anything else.

(1,115 posts)The repugs are working on a time capsule and have nothing to
offer except encourage impeachment. Just sit back and watch
the G.O.P. continue to crumble. The clock is ticking.
