      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 …

      Jeet Heer added,

      Matt Karp  🌹 🦏 🇺🇸 @karpmj
      Just in structural terms, the politics of impeachment bend — almost inevitably — toward an alliance between official progressives and Never Trump elites. I hope you all are ready for this

      2. Any Trump scandal, including Ukrainegate, can be framed in two radically different ways: Trump is bad because he's an aberration (the centrist view) or Trump is bad because he's taken the vices of the existing system to their absurd end (the left view).

      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 disagree with you that "Trump is treating the presidency as his personal fiefdom, using his office to punish his political enemies" is a Left argument. It's an everyone argument.

          I think his point is that the thing that is NOT an everyone argument is 'here comes the security establishment to save America from bad, bad Trump. Hooray!'

          Trump is going to be the first president who the house impeaches and then wins re-election.

          I really don't understand this. D House leadership, the presidential candidates, and the media are the ones who are framing it, and we see how they're going to craft the narrative. What we need is an explanation of how anyone else will get a word in edgewise.
