I don't have a problem with that, since it'll mean a quick impeachment. It can be left up to presidential candidates like Sanders & Warren to draw out broader lessons from this.

Left has different reasons for impeachment than the center, the final straw was this Ukraine/Hunter Biden stuff but doing literal UN definition of genocide stuff wasn't enough for impeachment and that matters. Pelosi and Mods are the Moderate Republicans to Trump's A. Johnson
