I stand full square with Pelosi on impeachment. At best, it's a public relations exercise, not an effective method for removing a president. It's only in the tool box for if, or when, public opinion turns on the chief executive. But again, it won't lead to removal thanks to the Senate.
Fucking Democrats are already on the path to blowing it: political success isn't about proper channels, strategies or methods. It's ALL about results.
Right now, Democrats need to get it in their collective head that Trump just won re-election in 2020. He did it by threatening Mexico with tariffs and pushing them to the wall on immigration. That's how Trump won, if 2020 was yesterday.
And what do the damned Democrats do? They don't get on the bandwagon and recognize that a win is a win, period...
Trump is all wrong on practically everything but he gets the wins! Yes, for Christ sakes, this is not how diplomacy and foreign relations should be done. Yes, removing third country aid to El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras is absolutely the wrong thing to do but all of that is neither here nor there politically.
One hell of a lot of voters see this immigration agreement as a reason to re-elect Trump. I laughed my ass off when Trump said Mexico would pay for The Wall. Even that, is now firmly in the realistic realm of possibilities. And should Trump get that, it's all over, regardless of which Democrat faces Trump in 2020.
