We would be in a very different place if the Democrats had made their peace with Trump's election and then evidence of impeachable offenses had emerged. As it stands I can't shake the sense that we are watching the republic come apart before our eyes.

We're setting ourselves up for a very volatile situation in which impeachment (very predictably) fails to result in removal and Trump (very predictably) wins a second democratic election. This'll be treated as a near impossibility, a complete surprise & a subversion of democracy.

This presupposes that not impeaching him leads to his not getting re-elected and that an impeachment failure won’t show a side to be too partisan to be trusted. The middle of the political country still holds we are a nation of laws and this course is correct.

The offenses alleged are impeachable, and in my opinion that means a just and lawful society will impeach. But it's very important that the people understand the purpose and process, and keep a level head.
