Once again the controlled opposition plays lip service to what the people want. What’s the over/under on this effort dying and then going “welp, we tried! There’s nothing we can do”
I certainly understand, and even agree with that opinion, but there IS a strategic objective possible.
The MAGA Senate will likely let her off the hook, and they'll have to run against that vote in November, when she will only be more reviled, and her poison will be dripping on anyone associated with her.
And there is always the remote possibility that enough MAGA Senators are tired of the nightmare, and decide to vote to convict her. If they do, and it looks likely to happen, the rest will all jump, too.
That's exactly what happened with the Epstein Files vote. It was supposed to get covered up, but everyone ended up voting FOR it in this exact scenario - because they didn't want to run against a No on Epstein. We have to make them fear a No on the Puppy Killer.
They will probably just replace her with Greg Bovino though...
That's fine, it couldn't be any worse, and if it does get worse, that hurts them far more. They think that they will eventually scare us into submission, but we aren't 1930s Germans. Americans were raised on fables of revolution and overthrowing tyrants, and they are only going to get MORE radical in the face of government tyranny, not less.
Bring it on, MAGA, we're collecting receipts, and keeping records. Nuremburg is coming.
And then impeach him. And if trump pisses them off badly enough, they can impeach him too.
Andrew Johnson was a lame duck after impeachment, because even though he kept his office, he was on notice from Congress.
