I agree that their tactics were terrible. Their concerns are mainly about optics and they get caught up in their own coattails.

But you can't claim that they weren't trying to use legitimate means to remove him from office. That is just absurd.

The could have impeached Trump on N things, where N is way more than one. They impeached him on one thing. Yes, I would say they were not trying hard at all.

Again, that's a question of tactics, not strategy.

Tactics, strategy, you're just shuffling. The point is that the Democrats could easily have done much more with the impeachment and they didn't.

So what? Completely irrelevant.

You're acting like a jilted lover, not a participant in democracy.

Lol, good place to retreat to buddy
