Of course they are because the think the house impeaching = Trump being removed. They haven’t considered the other half of the process though. The senate not convicting and removing Trump will be crushing



You are wrong. Every day that goes by is a victory for them. They view it as stealing his presidency. And, it will continue.

Oh they know that. Their planned narrative is the Senate was "partisan".

What they don't seem to be planning for is an extensive, unfiltered, unfettered, nationally televised cross-examination. They also don't seem to be accounting for the time (potentially up to super Tuesday) McConnell and the Trump Defense could occupy half the Democrat candidates, locking them in DC.

Most Democrats think that "impeachment" means Trump will be removed and jailed



You would be surprised... and probably frightened, to know how many people (repub and dem) think that is what peachment is

Yes it has. They want it to be a campaign issue that gets Republican senators ousted in purple states. I've seen their meat puppets disseminate this a lot recently. Their daily accusations and media-backed Trump guilt assumption propaganda is just a huge 2020 campaign effort.

They think they've washed the landscape with Trump guilt enough in key areas to flip some seats in the Senate. I think they've grossly overestimated public support for impeachment, though.

The dems must have some kind of play going to the senate.

Do they think going to “trial” in the senate means they get his tax records or something? And that there is something sinister they will find?

I thought it has been said that members of Congress cannot be impeached because of some ruling in the 1800s. Otherwise, they would be getting impeached nonstop. That is why we vote for Representatives every two years, but the smart populace keeps voting the same SOBs back in.

After yesterday’s ig report the DNC and media are done. This proves they are crooks and liars - the left will eventually snap out of their delusional alternative reality - Trump wins big in 20/20

They know this. They just want to string it out, fatigue voters, and damage Trump's reelection chances.

Pretty much exactly the charge they are trying to impeach him on.

It’s turning off moderates. Tigerdoc’s pussy hat brigade didn’t need this to be all fired up. They were fired up after they stopped crying and adopted by any means necessary. They weren’t kidding.

Of course it’s driven by the media.

I agree. They have something under their sleeves.

Also, but for Mueller, impeachment, etc., Trumps approval rating would likely be over 60%.

The economy is roaring, record low unemployment, no new wars, reduction in the wars we are still in, etc....but for all of this mess influencing stupid people, he would be as popular as any modern president.

So, in that sense, this is working. It’s creating doubt.

Don’t forget, the Dems have no ideas.

Yes, it did. And they will use it as talking points..."See, we told you, the right is racist." "We tried to impeach him, but the alt right is racist."

I'd take bets on how many times they use "alt right," "racist," "white supremacy" in their campaign ads, but I'd probably lose count fairly quickly.
