Opinion: Impeachment fever helps partisans on both sides of the Trump divide. What about the rest of us? (via latimesopinion)
Let’s be honest. The impeachment fever raging in Washington isn’t entirely about the phone call President Trump made to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
On top of the dam breaking in Pelosi’s conference, clear majorities of Democratic voters have favored impeaching Trump for two years, even as clear majorities of the broader electorate did not. The intensity of partisan Democratic opinion has been magnified by the presidential primary, with numerous candidates — most notably Elizabeth Warren — loudly banging the impeachment drum, and attracting large crowds in the process.Most Democrats had hoped special counsel Robert S.
In other words, we’re right where we started, with everyone in their corners. Two groups of Americans look at the same call, the same transcript, the same documents and the same punditry and walk away with vastly and diametrically opposed conclusions. For Democrats, who have overreached time and again on Trump, the American public simply may not find the Ukrainian matter all that compelling and wonder why the new Democratic House majority isn’t doing as much governing as they are raging against the White House.
