DC impeachment rally goes bust! ‘Major’ event at Capitol fails to materialize

This could very well be the nail in the coffin on the subject of impeachment.

As House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler continues to make the rounds in Congress to push his belief that the President will soon be impeached, the American people seem less than enthused at the prospect.

The idea of impeaching Donald Trump has been around for years.  The RussiaGate conspiracy theory was the most fleshed-out incarnation of the “resistance” rhetoric, and fizzled out at the hands of Robert Mueller himself after his reluctant testimony failed to invigorate the liberal masses.

In an effort to goad our legislators forward on the matter, organizers worked to create a massive impeachment “rally” in Washington DC this week – one that would forever cement the peoples’ believe that President Trump had to go.

Well, that would have been the case if anyone showed up.

A website and eventbrite.com promoted rallies in Washington, DC, and other cities across the country to take place Monday to push for the impeachment of President Donald Trump – but no one showed up for the one at the Capitol.

The website, impeachmentaugust.org, said the protest would take place at 11:00 a.m. at 1st Street SE, which is near the House side of the Capitol. The website states that the protest is supported by several leftist and anti-Trump groups, including Indivisible, MoveOn, Need to Impeach, Stand Up America, March of Truth, By the People, Common Cause, Free Speech for People, Democracy for America, Progressive Democrats of America, Credo, and democrats.com.

Event organizers seemed uninterested in explaining what happened.

The eventbrite.com protest notice said it would take place at noon on Monday on the “Capitol lawn below the steps,” but no one showed up for that protest. This protest notice said that “events are registered with Indivisible,” one of the groups listed as a sponsor for the 11:00 a.m. protest.

Breitbart News reached out to the contact for the Indivisible event but did not receive a response. Breitbart News also reached out to MoveOn to ask if the protest was canceled and, if not, were organizers disappointed that no one showed up?

While this certainly won’t be the last time that we hear the “I” word in relation to President Trump, it appears as though this could be one of the last gasps of air that the democrats will have in relation to it.
