For the record ---
I WISH that an impeachment would undo the 2016 election.
I mean, wouldn't that be amazing? Neil and Brett get drop-kicked down the steps of the Supreme Court by Ginsburg and Sotomoyor. That moronic tax cut gets rescinded and money flows into the treasury.

Children are not only let out of cages, but were never even put in there -- their trauma is magically re-wound and removed! Children were not stolen from their parents. Camps were not built and run by for-profit companies.
Devos never got within spitting distance of the Department of Education. Thousands of students received correct loan forgiveness rather than suffering while Devos did everything in her power to protect abusive loan companies.
I mean, christ, the list could literally go on ALL NIGHT.
Tariffs. Judges. People who are literally dead because of one man's massive incompetence. Three years of damage to our career civil service, not to mention rule of law.

IMPEACHMENT DOESN'T GET TO MAKE THAT GO AWAY. It's not a magic re-wind button.
As a country we will NEVER get to forget the utter travesty of the last three years, and we will deal with the long-term consequences of these years for so long.

Impeachment is about recognizing that our elected (*) president is committing crimes. It is about stopping him from committing future crimes. It was put into our constitution for a specific purpose. Just this purpose, in fact.
If the Republicans in the House were half the patriots they pretend to be, they would be screaming their heads off. Trump is literally one-upping Nixon right now, and his toadies are saying "Get over it."
I mean, I've lost a lot of faith in the GOP over the last three years, but this........ this is beyond everything.
But, no. Every time some Republican betrays the spirit of this country and its founders by whining about "attempts to reverse an election" I want to scream.

I WISH we could reverse the 2016 election.
I WISH we could expunge the damage of the last three years.
I WISH I could get back the faith in my country and its democracy that I had the night before that AWFUL election.

But, no.
We can't.
We know that.
Impeachment isn't that.
And, Republicans?
FUCK YOU.
YOU IMPEACHED CLINTON BECAUSE HE LIED ABOUT A CONSENSUAL BLOWJOB, AND NOW YOU HAVE THE FUCKING GALL TO DEFEND A MAN WHO TRIED TO BLACKMAIL A FOREIGN COUNTRY INTO DOING HIS CAMPAIGN WORK?
We can't.
