DEMS JUST DON'T REALIZE IT YET.
Flatlined polls.
Senate acquittal.
Trump absolved of his worst crimes.
Trump accomplices home free.
Yes, #Schiff is smart and eloquent. But this sham process shows why establishment Dems keep losing.
A new CNN poll showing 51% want Trump removed got lots of buzz.
But “REMOVE” was at 52% in Oct. 2019 (Gallup).
50% in Dec. 2019 (Fox)
52% in Dec. 2019 (Politico/Morning Consult).
And Gallup and Politico dropped to 46% and 47% in January.
The last surviving Nuremberg prosecutor called Trump and Miller’s policy of kidnapping migrant children a “crime against humanity."
But Pelosi last year called it a “difference of opinion.”
Heinous human rights abuses at the border.
Brazen #emoluments violations.
Inciting white supremacist terrorism.
Verbally assaulting the free press (First Amendment)
Stoking xenophobia, racism, and bigotry.
Progressive activists spent 2019 organizing, protesting, and pressuring Dem leaders to #ImpeachTrump.
For most of the year, #Pelosi callously brushed them off — until Trump came for #Biden, one of the establishment’s pillars...
Pelosi’s fans attack anyone who questions her, claiming she's “playing the long game" and “Trust Pelosi.” They say her timing is impeccable, her sideways clap shows she “gets under Trump’s skin.”
But what has establishment Dem "timing" gotten us?
FAILURE.
Just as she recently excused Bush’s war crimes, Pelosi has effectively given Trump a free pass on 95% of his transgressions. And no consequences for Kavanaugh, Barr, Pompeo, Pence, or any of the thugs around Trump.
