      Can someone pinpoint the exact moment when "impeach Trump" became the leftist rallying cry and "impeachment is a distraction" became the centrist one, because I feel like something changed along the way

      Um, speaking for myself: I always thought focusing on Russiagate (as against health care) was a mistake. But Cohen conviction & Mueller Report both show Trump committed crimes & I think it's a bad message to say a president can get away with crimes.

      Mueller as impeachment fodder is purely lemons to lemonade stuff at this point. That investigation never should've been the primary grounds for a potential effort, but that's what they pushed to the public. So.

      I don't know what this means. I was for impeachment while Democrats were still open to it, just for different reasons. I've been consistent. The party has not.

      I actually am inconsistent on this because I thought Pelosi was good in 2017/2018 & defended her many times but now that she's slow-walking holding Trump accountable I've soured on her leadership.https://newrepublic.com/article/143471/defense-nancy-pelosi …

          Maybe current Jeet could learn some lessons from 2017-2018 Jeet about trusting experience?

          Maybe we could have a speaker who wasn't in opposition to a super majority of the party on basic things like Medicare For All and a Green New Deal.

          Also attacking 4 freshman congresswomen who are immensely popular with almost the entire next generation of the democratic party.

          I was an unabashed Pelosi fan for years. She's good at passing legislation. But she's no wartime consigliere. And her leadership when it comes to holding Trump accountable has been nothing short of an abdication.

          Would you consider the possibility that 'slow-walking' is a deliberate strategy, following the wikileaks/emails drip drip drip model (and that spring of 2019 is too far from election day to make any big moves)?

          I’d discount any theory dependent upon Democratic leadership deliberately withholding information relevant to national security for political purposes.
