Why the fuck hasn't Pelosi come out publicly in support of impeachment?

[Exellus]

Why is it that top to bottom, every single fucking politician with any amount of power in our government has become complete and total dick suckers to president fatass?

His party worships him. His opponents are too scared to attack him.

Every fucking lever and every fucking tool should have been pressed and used and leveraged MONTHS AGO.

Of course not. Every fucking American is an ambivalent, lazy fuck. You get politicians who are PERFECTLY representing you.

Cowards and villains represented by cowards and villains.

Choke on a dick every one of you.

Because publicly stating a position that the caucus doesn't support (yet) just gives the GOP ammunition to use against them.

Rich white people don't share your urgency. That's why.

Because there's not a caucus majority on board and it's not worth whipping at this point even if she wanted to.

The last 24 hours should radically change the approach of everyone to this, however, and by Monday if they're not altering tacts on this fast I will be very upset.

Prreviously, drawing shit out Benghazi style for ages and ignoring the Senate vote was the best option because of the party line senate. Now? You need to force the Senate vote because you can pin the GOP Senators we need to beat in 2020 to the wall with this even if we don't get Trump out. And if we do, Trump's gone and the GOP Senators just pissed off their base. It's a win-win politically AND the right thing to do.

Because they're not going to be able to impress him successfully.

 

[Squarehard]

I'm shocked too.

This is the first time anybody has ever brought this up.

And you fulfill the OPs premise. Weak leaders representing weak constituents.

This thread is needlessly antagonistic and this topic can be discussed in numerous political threads, so it's locked.
