a "why aren't you impeaching now" narrative. If they were it would be the factual truth. Trump deserves to be impeached, more so than Nixon.

I wish that if Dems ever go the impeachment route that it gets covered 24/7, that would be a big plus, right now Trump is controlling the narrative, the headlines are about immigration, Iran and abortion.

Every day we get more evidence why Trump should be impeached. There is a difference between regular oversight hearings and impeachment hearings. We will never get to see the grand jury information under regular oversight hearings and that is where all of the juicy dirt on Trump and his crime family are located.

If Democrats make impeachment into a political decision as the reason they will not impeach, it will backfire on them, millennials will not turn out to vote, just like they didn't vote for president in 2016. Yes, Russia and the far right were a big reason that Hillary lost when they smeared her with so much mud, but the fact of the matter is that Trump won because his base voted and ours didn't. Not impeaching Trump isn't going to inspire millennials to come out and vote.
