In reply to the discussion: Impeachment without a chance to win it is a fool's errand and BAD idea, period. [View all]Midnightwalk
(3,131 posts)Public hearings on the corruption, the collusion, violations of the constitution (emoluments) should happen and damn the expense. We need to uphold the law publicly.
Without clear evidence we should not go to impeachment. What to do if the evidence is clear but in chance of winning the senate? Harder for me to say what I think is right until I think more and see what the evidence is.
Don't take me wrong, I think trump is guilty as hell, but we need more than belief. Investigate publicly and thoroughly before committing to impeachment. That's how investigations are supposed to be done.
I agree we have to do more and can't just be about investigating. Others point out we can't get anything through the senate or signed by the president, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. We have to build the story of what we passed and what the republicans refused to. We have to pass things to do that. It also blunts the narrative that all we could do is investigate.
