Until recently Pelosi insisted that impeachment could only go forward if Republicans signed on. That’s Coonsian nonsense on its face. It shouldn’t take buy-in from the lunatic caucus for Democrats to do their job under the constitution.
It is the kind of antiquated thinking that allowed Republican Senate minorities to block anything they wanted to block. It is the kind of antiquated thinking that Joe Scar still cheers for from his lofty MSNBC morning show ivory tower – but it isn’t the type of thinking that makes sense given reality of Trump’s ongoing criminal activities.
Whatever happens good riddance to sham, one-way bipartisanship which had Democrats giving away everything while getting nothing.
