Rumblings of Impeachment Continue to Percolate in 2020 Campaigns

Liz Warren has broken with Nancy Pelosi and top democrats in what could simply be an attempt to refocus the 2020 spotlight on her struggling campaign.

We find ourselves in quite the political pickle, my fellow Americans, and I don’t mean that lightly.

There are doubts on the horizon over just how the 2020 general election will play out, thanks in no small part to the overt and angry rebukes of the President that seem to stream directly from the nucleus of the democratic party.  Congress, which at one point in our history legislated, has devolved into nothing more than the public relations wing of our political parties.

And don’t get me started on the false dichotomy of the two-party system as a whole…

Among the 2020 democrats, of which there are many, the idea of impeaching Donald Trump has been fairly popular, despite House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s utter loathing of the idea.

Liz Warren does not agree, and she’s letting her opinion be heard.

Tuesday from the Senate floor for 40 minutes, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) called for the impeachment of President Donald Trump in response to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) comments stating it was “case closed” on Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Warren opened by saying, “This separation of powers is part of the brilliance of our Constitution, and it has served us well for centuries. Yes, I took an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States, and so did everybody in the Senate and the House, including the majority leader. And now we must act to fulfill that oath. There is no political inconvenience exception to the United States Constitution. If any other human being in this country had done what’s documented in the Mueller report, they would be arrested and put in jail.”

Impeachment would be a risky move for the democrats, particularly as it pertains to the 2020 election.

Should such a motion reach the Senate, there is little doubt that it would fail to pass, making the entire, delineating experience a waste of time and taxpayer-provided resources.
