    No need for reason or evidence or anything. Hell, we don’t even need a charge with any meat on it. None of that matters.

    All we care about is normalizing Presidential impeachments. That way we get to play whataboutism endlessly.

    Started with Clinton. Most of us thought it was all rather ridiculous, but they tried anyway. Here we are.

      Exactly. Ideally, they would have wanted to have impeached Biden 3 times. This way, Trump could have said that he wasn’t impeached nearly as much as Biden.

      They failed at that, but Plan B is to impeach him once regardless of any evidence or any charges. Then, Trump can claim that impeachment is just a normal thing that opposing parties do and that it means nothing.
