In reply to the discussion: Your thoughts here. Would it be to our advantage to impeach RUMP [View all]dawg day
(7,947 posts)Even if Mueller comes out with impeccable evidence, there will never be enough GOP senators to vote to convict. Better to concentrate on humiliating him electorally.
Let him run and be defeated, taking with him GOP senators.
That will also clear out more plausible GOP candidates, as Cruz et al aren't brave enough to challenge him. We'll have the way clear then for a real Dem majority.
That's not to say the Dems in the House should avoid confrontation. They should hold hearings all the time, drive home the idea of the criminality of the entire administration. That actually wouldn't come out in an impeachment trial, as there isn't enough time for all the evidence to be presented.
Shame him in House hearings, then humiliate him at the polls.
