        Mark Warner told a meeting of Dems they should take a one- or two-day cooling off period if Trump fires Rosenstein, and take that time to reach out to Republicans. Pushback against WH will mean more if it’s bipartisan.

        Warner’s specific point (which seems to be getting lost in the reaction here) is that Dems should focus on protecting Mueller and the investigation, rather than jumping to call for impeachment.

        I'm open to the idea of making the call for impeachment Step 2. But if I recall, there was open talk of impeachment after the Saturday Night Massacre. Why would/should it be any different this time?

        @KT_So_It_Goes Read the last line. Bravo if Dems can actually follow the cooling off period and keep focus on protecting Mueller...but that last line is ominous

        The "do nothing" plan of attack is always most effective. 🙄
