    Unfortunately, without the numbers in the house and the senate, they won’t be able to do anything. They can present articles of impeachment all they want, but they won’t get the votes from republicans.

    Their best bet is to sway the court of public opinion to help flip the house and the senate. But there are so many people who won’t give a crap, and will continue voting for the guys protecting pedophiles.

      I suppose the Democratstm could fillibuster and obstruct every bill possible like the Republicanstm have for years until enough Republicanstm agree to enact the articles of impeachment.

        They don’t seem to care anymore and just let them do whatever. I’d rather everything was shutdown than continue another day of doing what a child rapist wants to do

      Democrats were in power for 4 years without releasing the files. Why would they now? Or ever?

          Yes, that’s why they didn’t release them. I asked, what’s changed that means they would release them now all of a sudden?

          No matter how many seats they flip, they don’t seem unable, they seem disinclined. When they were able, they chose not to.
