-the un-redacted report- there should be no fear of failure.
Why are Republicans hiding the Report?
What do they fear?
If the information in the Mueller Report is that damning, Democrats should be daring the senate to vote trump not guilty. IMHO

Remember that oligarchs feel persecuted and that there political clout in many forms will grind along with our impeachment hearings.

When Mueller releases his report unredacted...and testimony unredacted...

That makes absolutely no rational sense. Let's stop acting like we have everything to be afraid of and, instead, follow FDR's admonishment "The only thing to be afraid of is fear itself" for a change.
Let's do what is right and trust in it as opposed to making political calculations like we did in 2016. Geezuz!

Your supposition/assumption that shining a light, without ambiguity, will somehow be all thats needed to turn the electorate against him is just naive at this point...
Just look at what Barr did with his words of deception...
No, we have to be smarter than we have been these past 3 years...
This is not the Nixon era...

(15,643 posts)if thats the case. That is basically what you just said. tRump is going to lie, manipulate and obfuscate regardless whether we pursue this or not.
This isnt shadow boxing, its a real fist fight. Get real or lose. Thats how I see it and what makes sense.

It just happened with 22 months of Mueller boxing...and where are we...?
We have to read the Mueller report and hear from Mueller directly...not this Barr obfuscation
