    I obviously don't agree with the substance of impeaching Trump on Russia/Mueller, but the strategic calculus laid out here is persuasive. I think people underrate the extent to which impeachment could motivate the *Dem* base, not just Trump's "base"https://www.gq.com/story/democrats-impeaching-trump …

        What base of democrats aren't motivated? The same Russiangate crowd with be pushing this or just about anything to get rid of Trump before the 2020 election. Why would other democrats who are quite frankly tired of the -Russia did it- crap be motivated?

        Democrats think it's the only way to get Trump out of office, since all of their candidates uncharismatic and have no platform. The only 2 consistent ones are Bernie and Tulsi, but the Democrats would rather lose with a neoliberal!

        Michael: The idea that impeachment is a political winner is the "wet dream" of the Corp anti-Trumpers. That is the only "base" that will celebrate. It will alienate Progressives incensed by failure of Dems to focus on serious governance and ensure a "food fight" in 2020=a 45 win

        It will also be used to bring back Russiagate & then weaponized against progressives, activist, anti-war & critics of democrats further demonizing and silencing them or just paint them as puppets of a foreign government. Reduce turnout= Helping Trump.

        I don't think the Democrats have any option. The base is demanding impeachment.

        The base doesn't sit on the House Rules Committee and can't force anything.

        This is a disgusting abuse of power & complete repudiation of the Constitution. Drafting “Articles of Impeachment” is not something the Founding Fathers included so a Political Party could “rally its base”. History will judge today’s Democrats harshly.

        Look at what Democrats are doing to Paul Manafort. It’s outrageous and whole Mueller team, along with NY DA Vance, should be shamed and castigated for it.

        That subheading is embarrassing: how is the inevitable senatorial acquittal not the most clear explicit event that Trump can point to as 'exoneration' (in his usual hyperbole)?

        Democrat party has a lot of soft support that is more about social signalling than policy. Impeachment will be branded as the spiteful act of a bunch of sore losers, and I think succesfully so. That is a social stigma.

        Plus, the Trump base will already be significantly motivated because Trump is on the ballot. Dems will have a relatively harder time getting the base enthusiastic without some relevant current outrage.

        Possibly. Although by going after Trump on obstruction, the hearings will re-activate Russiagate, whether that is Dem’s intention or not, and so the article neglects to consider what Trump’s defense operation will roll out in response to show Russiagate was an inside hit job.
