Because the media narrative is built around showdowns and politics as a sport, the impeachment inquiry has been criticized by pundits for not convincing more than half the nation.

The real story is why the other half CAN'T be convinced. That's the problem. That's the crisis.
It's not Democrats vs. Republicans. It's every open-minded citizen who's terrified of the country being turned into an engine of corruption, including Democrats AND Republicans, against a death cult that has no interest in questioning their politically-beneficial reality.
The people investigating Trump, the people speaking out against him FROM INSIDE HIS ADMINISTRATION, are also Republicans. It's not a Dem plot to unseat him.

The problem is that the lens the media presents the news is all Blue vs. Red, D vs. R. It's the only way they know how.
Even lifelong Republican Robert Mueller was squeezed into the Democrat vs. Republican narrative, which robbed the bipartisan concern of its bipartisan nature.

It's most of us trying desperately to show people uninterested in seeing what's actually going on.
What we see of the Republican Party is a mutation, but because everything is Left vs. Right, Dem vs. Republican, it all gets treated like it's normal. It's not, and until we drop that antiquated, faulty lens, we're not going to actually talk about what's actually going on.
