The anger against Democrats for not impeaching is getting stronger.

[OliverQ]

I imagine a lot of people still live in a bubble and don't realize just how criminal and traitorous Trump is, but social media is exploding right now demanding Democrats start impeachment.

Nadler posted about Trump's foreign dirt comments on twitter and he get destroyed by people demanding less talk on twitter and more action. People are telling him to ignore Pelosi if she won't go through with it (he can initiate impeachment without her.) People are pissed at Hakeem Jeffries MSNBC interview yesterday pushing back against impeachment.

I really think if Democrats refuse to impeach and just wait for 2020, it's going to severely hurt Democrats.

4. Which amounts to a very tiny percentage of Democrats

8. CNN poll showed that 76% of Democrats want impeachment. (6/3/19)

76% of Democrats favor impeachment. About 41% of all voters favor impeachment (this includes Republicans and Independents).

According to a CNN poll conducted last week, 76 percent of Democrats favor impeachment. (The poll did not ask about simply beginning an impeachment investigation, which is what some House Democrats are calling for.) Impeachment is favored by 41 percent of voters overall, not a majority, but far more than supported impeachment at the beginning of the Watergate hearings.

It’s no wonder so many Democrats want their representatives to take a more aggressive approach to the president. It has now been five months since the party took control of the House of Representatives, a month and a half since the redacted report by the special counsel Robert Mueller was released, and almost a week since Mueller stood before the nation and all but asked Congress to hold a lawless president accountable.

Yet Democrats have largely failed to even begin presenting a cohesive case to the public about Trump’s corruption and criminality. That could start to change next week, when the Judiciary Committee launches hearings into the Mueller report, but no blockbuster witnesses are yet lined up. The actual contents of the Mueller report should have been devastating for Trump. Instead, thanks to Bill Barr, an attorney general who acts more like a Fox News pundit, the administration has managed to obscure Mueller’s findings, and then go on the offense against the investigation itself.

5. Mine Sure Is

Nancy is talking but it sure seems like she still doesn’t seem like she’s ready to go, keeps saying it takes time to gather evidence.....what???? One of the ways you gather evidence is impeach the SOB......not that we don’t already have copious evidence right from the Orange one’s mouth.

It is Go time Madam Speaker so let’s go!!!

7. Says who?

9. The people?

Until quite recently, Democratic House leaders justified their refusal to begin an inquiry into impeaching Donald Trump by saying that it wasn’t something their rank-and-file voters cared about. “I can tell you I never hear somebody bring up the Mueller report,” Representative Cheri Bustos, chairwoman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said in Chicago last month.

After the Memorial Day recess, that argument is no longer tenable. Across the country, Democratic voters have begun demanding that their representatives take a position on impeachment. “At virtually every town hall, round table, or even, today, a kaffeeklatsch at a senior center, people want to know what we are going to do about this guy,” Mary Gay Scanlon, Democrat of Pennsylvania, told me. Scanlon is vice chairwoman of the Judiciary Committee, which would oversee an impeachment inquiry, and two weeks ago she came out in favor of starting the process.

“There’s been a shift,” said Madeleine Dean, a freshman Democrat from Pennsylvania who also sits on the Judiciary Committee, and also wants to begin an impeachment inquiry. At a town hall last week, one of the first questions she was asked was about impeachment. When she visited local stores and barbershops, she told me, constituents approached her and said, of Trump, “You cannot let the behavior stand.”

On Friday, Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat who is the chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes that he’d come around to supporting an impeachment inquiry after speaking to people in his district: “To the person, everybody said, ‘What are you all going to do about President Trump?’” Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, told me, “I had about a dozen events this weekend, and there was an overwhelming sense that we have been presented with abundant evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors and we need to launch an inquiry.”

I think the administration refusing to honor subpoenas and produce documents has angered the Democratic public.
