2016? WHY don't the dems point out on the House floor that 2018 was a HUGE turnout

[Scotch-Irish]

to cure the mistake the voters saw they had made in 2016? That's why the democrats are now in charge! Because the public saw that the republicans were complicit with a lawless president, and turned out in unprecedented numbers to put the dems in control to get rid of Trump.

1. Possibly because that would argue for waiting

Until the election. Allows voters to finish the job.

An alternative rebuttal might be that those same voters gave the controls for impeachment trials to them.

2. IMHO because Dems want to keep this about the impeachable actions of the presdient

not about defending the constant lies repubs are going on and on about. Same way they haven't pointed to 66M people voting for Clinton rather than 63M for Trump

4. Steney Hoyer just mentioned that.

Democrats applauded enthusiastically.

3. i agree. we sent a blue wave to check this criminal. it is clear as day.

yeah, we talked about health care and gun control and reproductive rights. because it was a given that we wanted a check on this crime spree.

and we sure hell wouldnt be here w/o it.
