2. When impeachment failed

I lobbied to rebring a second slate. I'm fully aware we didn't have the votes but it was congress' DUTY to address the crimes and misdemeanors. My hope was an impeached candidate would incite a blue wave, now we'll never know.

Only large Senate/House majorities would allow the Constitutional amendments we need to fix these flaws in the Executive branch.
