Dems alone cannot impeach Trump. They know that. Informed people know that. A gesture of impeachment, with full acknowledgment it won't actually impeach Trump without the GOP, can only function symbolically and should therefore be deployed judiciously. Voters can always vote out the GOP.

re: "Voters can always vote out the GOP." So you're 100% sure that voter suppression and all the other various tactics for rigging upcoming elections will fail. Sorry. That's a bad bet. You don't know the future.

re: "Dems alone cannot impeach Trump." The problem is not that they can't. It's that they don't want to. Given the chance to vote to impeach twice last year, BOTH TIMES they voted for Trump. The symbolism here is clear. They hate democracy and love fascists.

In theory, a Dem can introduce an impeachment resolution at any time. The reality is that the current House Judiciary Committee is chaired by the GOP so any resolution filed is DOA. I don't see the point of introducing a resolution that will not result in anything. House Dems know & understand that.

being afraid to stand up for what's right makes Elected Democrats look like pathetic cowards if they fought like hell for impeachment and removal they could at least have some dignity win or lose quitting cuz they have no courage is just contemptible
