The scenario where impeachment has no political effect except to ruin Doug Jones's chances for re-election and thereby deny Democrats narrow control of the Senate is such an infuriatingly stupid one that by the iron law of 2020 it must come true.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/key-democratic-senator-remains-undecided-on-whether-trump-should-be-removed-from-office/2019/12/22/8ef235b6-24dc-11ea-9c21-2c2a4d2c2166_story.html …
