        for what it's worth, I think Tlaib made a fairly strong case for impeachment here, and expressing it at a rally as "impeach the motherfucker" undermines her own casehttps://www.freep.com/story/opinion/contributors/2019/01/03/donald-trump-impeachment/2463127002/ …

        This case for impeachment by Bob Bauer, while retain before Tlaib's comment,. helps explain why they undermine the project: https://www.justsecurity.org/62080/coming-terms-impeachment-process-case-starting-formal-inquiry/ …pic.twitter.com/yYf9DonSEU

        It's only a gift for Trump if the press doesn't note that civility in politics was brutally murdered by him in 2015-2016.

        Is it really? Is this video really going make Trump supporters more Trumpy? I think it will have zero effect one way or the other.

        People are still acting like Saying Bad Things is still bad. If Trump has done nothing else, he’s put that notion to rest. You can say whatever you want and your hard core supporters will support you. Everyone else will forget in a day. I hope she doesn’t apologize.

        More than half the country agrees, no? Or is the quibble that she should have used "daughter-" instead of "mother-" as the modifier?
