Last time I checked they have a slam dunk with that phone call and now witnesses, and it's just up to the Democrats.. what, you don't think there are enough Dem votes to impeach him?
I don't think they have the conviction or wherewithal to do it. Sorry, but it's the same party that managed to lose to Trump in the first place in 2016, lose to George Bush in 2000 and 2004 (which is really the biggest embarrassment of them all), and the very same party that's rallying around Elizabeth Warren for 2020. So with the exception of Obama, it really isn't a party that showed it can score the hard victories.
Impeachment proceedings will be ready at best in March or April and at that point public support will have plummeted enough to warrant taking it off the table entirely.
To be clear, I'm not saying he shouldn't be impeached and removed from office (he shouldn't have been elected in the first place), but it's just not going to happen at this point.
Understood your last point completely, but wow that is a very bold prediction given what they have now. Why do you think they will only be ready in the spring? The main evidence is the phone call, trump's public admission, CoS' pubic admission, the main witnesses have testified, Ukraine has admitted it knew about the hold up of funds, and then you have Rudy and the stooges. Ah, don't forget pretty strong public support for impeachment. But you are saying they are simply not going to deliver on it... I guess I get your cynicism but I really don't see how they drop the ball with this gift from the baldface crier.
