“we shouldn’t impeach a sitting president.”

“we shouldn’t impeach, because it’ll lead to more division.”

long story short: it would force them to go on record about something that makes them look bad.

It feels like their voters have, generally, shown us they don’t care.

Let’s rephrase your question. Nancy and the House are so set on having a trial to impeach a private citizen. Why?!

Are they afraid they won’t be able to defeat Trump if he ran again?

Why wasn’t Bernie impeached when a supporter of his shot Republicans? Where was his constitutional responsibility?

This doesn’t seem like a trial of Justice. Chief Justice Roberts wants nothing to do with it. If the House gets away with this, what can of worms will it open? Will Nancy propose we impeach Andrew Jackson next?

They got caught in a catch 22. Not hold Trump accountable and possibly alienate college educated suburban voters or piss off MAGA. I think the calculus here is that MAGA is larger.

Why?

They are scared because it will go on record and will haunt them in primary or haunt them again in general election.

This just goes to show that this is all BS and that the rules are only for a select few. By allowing this to slide we open ourselves up for much worse in the future.

Because now that Trump's cult members have turned on them they are running scared. Almost every journalist covering the Hill has said if it were a secret vote it might be different but I'm not convinced - the deplorable element they controlled for 40+ years has turned on them.
