      1. Here's the paradox: the more crimes Trump commits, the more disunited his opposition becomes. If Trump did shoot someone on 7th Avenue, not only would he get away with it, but the Dems would be tearing each other apart.

      2. The answer to the paradox is simple: there is no clear Dem leader. So the worse Trump becomes, the more Dems argue over how to deal with him. This is all the moreso because Nancy Pelosi has decided to forgo leadership on impeachment.

          3. The core Pelosi decision -- which I hope she changes -- is that impeachment doesn't make sense if there is no GOP buy-in. The reasoning here is that if only Dems push for impeachment it'll be seen as partisan. But this gives GOP veto power over issue.

          Replying to @HeerJeet

          Feels like Pelosi excels at tactical leadership, but there is no strategic vision RE confronting and stopping Trump. Lots of rhetoric about how he's uniquely dangerous but no playbook and no leader willing to write one.

          Do you have any criticism, any at all, for the other major party? The Republicans.

          He’s literally saying Trump commits crimes and should be impeached. You could also just read anything else he’s ever said about Republicans.

          Maybe @SpeakerPelosi learned from trump. Reality tv teaser. The more we don’t impeach the more people talk about impeachment until people start shouting IMPEACH! from every rooftop. Also. Twitter isn’t real. So there’s that.

          Warren is the leader of the party essentially.

          I can’t figure it out. But it does seem to me that there is a class of Democrats who are terrified Trump might simply be beaten in an election without being impeached, convicted and removed a few months before the election. You probably understand this mindset better than I do.

          I remember you called this, and agree this might be the biggest tactical failure of the past nearly 3 years https://newrepublic.com/article/139107/democrats-need-pick-leader-now …

          only caveat is that pointing to Warren distracts -- nearly anyone would have been better than no one
