It's very possible to imagine a scenario where Trump is damaged by impeachment even if he is acquitted. Impeachment would keep his perceived illegality and behavioral flaws front-and-center -- rather than, say, the economy. You don't need to convict him to inflict political harm

Should senators publicly call for impeachment before it reach senate, being jury and all?
-
They really shouldn't, but that's not necessarily a concern of a lot of Democrat primary voters.

On an issue that 1% of the population expressed any interest in a month or so ago.

I hope that he has the good sense to say something like "with an election 18 months away I don't think impeachment is a good use of Congressional resources." He could pick up some ground on Biden by being the sole voice of reason in the democratic party.

I don’t see how impeachment proceedings, no matter their merit, cannot help but being tainted by years’ of RussiaGate nonsense and hysterical, false accusations. The media and DEMs who repeatedly cried wolf have inoculated DT against credible criticism for many.
-
IMAO, DEMs who sign on to impeachment proceedings risk being seen as part of the “sour grapes” cabal who have made it clear from the election on that they wanted Trump out by any means.

I think Bernie should keep his powder dry and let his cohorts test the water, being the thoughtful statesman.

Well, if he is smart he would want to win back his supporters who might have moved to trump. May be a reason he isn't polling as high. To endorse impeachment on the guy who made them feel like they were fighting the corrupt DNC wouldn't be a smart move, in my humble opinion

The intent is to smear Trump. That has always been the intent. That will continue to be the motivation moving forward.

One thing I don't see anyone talking about is there will be selective releases of classified info painting the investigation as politically motivated while impeachment is going on. This will play well with GenX Independents who didn't like the IC power grab in the early 2000s.

It's not about the election, it is about delaying the Trump program, by making him spend time and effort on this fake stuff, so he never gets any of the stuff they don't like done (it's also about grounds for a future war with Russia - these lunatics love war and murder)

The message I’m getting from Washington is this. We HATE the fact Trump beat Hillary. HATE it!! He must go for any reason. By extension we HATE his supporters. Connor Lamb ( my district Pa 18) and other moderates were elected to calm the waters. How’s that working out?

They’re all waiting for more republicans to come on board. The true loyalties of individuals within the Republican Party are about to go on full display. Which is not a bad thing. It’s probably time for the President to clean house again.

It takes a shrewd tactician and a persuasive pol to play impeachment to his advantage. Bill Clinton did it. Could Trump? Oh yeah. He starts in a stronger position, as he never committed any crimes—but his enemies did. OTOH the MSM is 100% against him, for they were accomplices.
