I'd feel better if I had any idea of the goal being pursued. Is it to stick senators with an acquittal vote that will allegedly be a political liability? Raise awareness among Americans about the fact that they are divided into two roughly equal teams who can't stand each other?

I'd also feel more sanguine about the process if there was a single person camped out on a lawn chair outside the White House with a sign reading 'impeach!', or if ten people marched on their lunch hour in any Republican senator's home state on this issue.

Back in the day (90's) there used to be a permanent little sit-in protest outside the White House. Does anyone remember this? I think it was on the national debt. They were a fixture in D.C.
