1. Matt brings up an important point here, which is that the ancien regime establishment (centrist Dems, Never Trump Republicans) is using Ukrainegate to shore up their positions.https://twitter.com/karpmj/status/1176913257296257024 …

3. The impeachment push feeds on energy that goes beyond establishment concerns about Trump's heterodoxy. Tlaib's war-cry "We're going to impeach this motherfucker!"appeals to popular discontent, not establishment desire to restore the status quo ante.

I didn't want the left to be right about this but it's clear to me that they are.

Does a long, more in-depth impeachment help show the absolute craven nature of Republicans backing him or solidify the view that Trump is a sui generis puppet master?

1)Interesting point, yet the left view just about justifies the GOP voters who accept Trump, knowing all his faults. If Trump isn't singularly bad/evil/unacceptable, but merely the ultimate player/politician, who are we who voted for HRC, knowing her faults, to judge?
-
"Who are we"? The question is irrelevant because, whatever HRC's many faults (taking Dem votes for granted, running shitty campaign, etc.), isn't even in the same sport as Trump, much less in same ballpark, and both-siding that comparison is dishonest.
