Trump is baiting the democratic party to begin impeachment proceedings. THAT is why he so blatantly skirts the edge of racism against these 4 ladies. He knows that the Senate will not remove him and he can claim vindication and even spin such failure into an ersatz trial with his supporters.
Plus, and here's the kicker, he gets to stir up hate and discontent to rile up the left and drive a wedge between the reactionaries who want impeachment and the others who want to wait and beat him at the ballot box. Just the wedge he needs to split up the democrat vote and ensure his victory in 2020.
Don't fall for it guys.
Except his attacking of them has stopped the dems from thier own internal squabbling. Don't worry, they'll get back to it soon enough.
Impeachment proceedings would produce evidence that the public wouldn't be able to ignore, and if the Senate ignores that evidence there's a very, very good chance the backlash could cost them control of the Senate, or at the least lose a couple seats. People need motivation to vote, and keeping a criminal in office might just do that.
There's so many ways this can shake out.
really? kind of like how they're responding to subpoenas and discovery requests right now? There's process and there's not process. Right now they ignore our use of process because we can't enforce it at all. period. They're going to continue with this privilege claim unopposed since they have their vote in the Supreme Court and Barr's blessing. Impeachment = Trump pseudo-acquittal. period. nothing more. He wants the impeachment. These views are just leading it right to him. He's daring you to do it. That's his whole scheme right now.
@JeffMesser The man functions on a level of deceit I don't comprehend. Other than voting... I've no idea wtf to do.
