Some Dems say don't push for impeachment because

it might disrupt our chances of winning in 2018.

Well let me ask them this: Do you really want to wait and see how much death and destruction Chump can cause during the interim? Will we even have a democracy in 2018 to win back? Sure, let the baby play with the gun until the adults decide to take it away. He might not shoot anyone.

If Pence gets caught of in the Russia treason we get Ryan. There is nothing we can do until we can take back the house.

Playing nice with them will is not an option.

The GOP needs be exposed for what they are and for what they are trying to do to this country. No opportunity to do so should be wasted.

Just prolonging the death part for as long as possible
while they inflict the most damage upon themselves.
It's mostly a game of patience and self-restraint.

any more mercy than had someone else in our society does it. 45 has been coddled all his fugging life with high priced lawyers. I consider it a complete injustice to think of letting these men who SOLD our entire country just slide. I think the ones spreading this rumor must be the GOP. They do not want this impeachment stain . They wanted impeachment for Ciinton over a damn blowjob and this ..this is so much worse. This HURT people. This hurt America. This hurt some of our allies.

you can't convince the Republicans to do it.

They will only do it if their individual poll numbers drop, as the news about Trump gets worse and worse.
