winning the Senate has always been the true prize of this impeachment since conviction has never been on the table. we need +3 along with the white house in november to save the country.

president have been totally ignored by the Senate. People do have long memories. My fear is what happens afterwards, when rump claims he's been cleared of charges (when in fact, he hasn't been). His excesses will have no boundaries and will test the limits of Senate patience. Rough times are ahead and the orange anus behavior will become worse, not better.

The House however, will still limit presidential and Senate desires, thank god, and must stand firm, regardless of the extreme behavior and heavy pressure that rump will bring upon the House democrats.

Bad behavior and bad bills must be fought from being passed.
