How can we say we are any better if we won't at least begin an Impeachment Inquiry because we think it will hurt us in the 2020 elections?

You can say it's just smart politics, but I'm guessing that's how the Republicans justify not doing anything to themselves.

I know it's not the same, but it still doesn't seem right to me.

One thing I do know, is that if this were a Democratic President, the Republicans would have started the Impeachment process long ago.

Impeachment is a process, thus the problem with these discussions-- start impeachment inquiry hlthe2b May 2019 #1

Respectfully, I think many here know that. The PROBLEM is, the citizenry may well not. Stinky The Clown May 2019 #3

The point is that one MUST specify what you are talking about. IS it the impeachment VOTE? hlthe2b May 2019 #6

Impeachment is a word that has meaning. This poll was about impeachment. Stinky The Clown May 2019 #11

as I repeatedly stated many Americans believe it means calling for the vote. YOU do need to specify hlthe2b May 2019 #13
