THREAD - THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

(Note: If you're offended by someone refusing to cheerlead for #Pelosi and Dem leaders, I'd suggest you avoid this thread.)

Let's break it down. We've had weeks of #ImpeachmentHearings to "inquire" about what Trump FREELY admitted on October 3.
THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

And these hearings came after months of Dem leaders refusing to #ImpeachTrump for:

Torturing migrant kids.

Violating the #EmolumentsClause.

Assaulting the First Amendment.

Obstructing justice with #Mueller.

Inciting #WhiteSupremacist terrorism.
THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

Apparently #Pelosi's brilliant "long game" was to give Trump a pass on ALL his numerous egregious abuses of power, and to wait for a #whistleblower to magically appear.

And the ultimate offense was not kidnapping brown children, but coming for #Biden.
THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

By delaying #impeachment until year end, establishment Dems have insured that #McConnell can tie up progressive presidential candidates in 2020 while leaving an open field for centrists. And although that may not impact the race, it's suspicious...
THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

By drawing out the process so long, Dem leaders have given the GOP time to circle the wagons. Doubtful there will be even ONE Republican defection. So the end result will be #impeachment that gives Trump a pass on EVERYTHING except a #Ukraine phone call.
THE #IMPEACHMENT CHARADE

And to top it off, Trump's cronies who have trampled the rule of law and defied subpoenas will face no consequences.

#Miller, #Barr, #Pompeo, #Pence, #Kavanaugh, and co. will keep running the country, doing the bidding of theocrats and plutocrats.
