Don't misunderstand. It's not that Trump *wants* to be impeached. It's that he wants us to TRY to impeach him RIGHT NOW, so they can KILL it in the Senate and Trump can declare "VICTORY! Elect me for another 4 years to make up for the 4 years the Democrats stole."

But the wise leadership of the Dems are doing their due diligence. Subpoenaing witnesses and records.

Letting the Trump White House respond with more obstruction in plain sight, understanding that obstruction itself is not enough for his belligerent base or his corrupted comrades in the GOP to bow to the law of the land rather than their Orange Majesty.

Letting the federal courts decide in the Dem's favor, forcing banking institutions and accounting firms to turn over the what Trump FEARS MOST and will surely be the downfall of his presidency.

Cuz obstruction may be a crime, but money laundering is a crime-crime. A high crime. And money laundering for foreign countries in return for helping Trump get elected is not just treasonous behavior, it's the quid in the pro quo. And provable on paper.

Just ask Paul Manafort.

When the Dems have that, they have the ball game. And it will be game over for Trump.

He will be impeached. He will be indicted. And he will face jail time.

We have to be willing to wait for it.

So wait for it...
