This makes sense in the selection of support for upcoming House races. After all, it’s the house that initiates impeachment.

This makes a LOT of sense for aggressively going after every Senate seat we can get our hands on. After all, the Senate holds the hearings that ultimately removes the President.

If one of our candidates does land the Presidency.. Impeachment of Cheetolini is no longer really an issue. Restoring dignity and transparency to our Justice Department, and possibly going after prosecutions that the Cheeto will no longer be protected from.. now THAT will be on our new President’s plat.

The smartest thing for all of our candidates to do is support and defer to our leadership in the House of Representatives, and not take any stance that may further energize Cheeto’s base to get out their vote.
