In this case, the phone call and everything surrounding it. Withholding aid, sending his personal lawyer, trying cover it up via false classification, etc.

I don’t think it’ll add up to jack diddly but it’s not like they’re doing anything better.

I mean I am by no means sure or confident it will either, but I feel at this point it's worth a try

It's not crazy to me to think they could've applied more pressure to witnesses in the obstruction case, for example. They could've easily held lewandowski in contempt and possibly charged him for perjury. They didn't cause they lacked the political will to do so.

As that video Mindfulness posted indicated, an impeachment inquiry opens the door to possible grand jury information and will hopefully also lead to a tougher stance from the Democrats, who are notoriously weak and spineless queer loving lizard people.

This simple matter of fact statement redirected my thinking about this subject. I went to the wiki page and read the details of Nixon’s impeachment. I already knew the deets but I wasn’t drawing this important lesson from it as it might apply to Trump. Good post.
