Democrats are about to go through hell now that the Senate trial is over
Washington Examiner ^ | 1/31/20 | Eddie Scarry

Now that the Senate trial is over, I hope Democrats have plenty of water and aspirin in preparation for the raging impeachment headache they're about to endure.

**SNIP**

I suspect that, when Democratic voters asked for impeachment, they weren't thinking of a scenario wherein Trump remains in office.

I suspect that when Democratic Reps. Maxine Waters, Rashida Tlaib, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez worked their wild base into a frothy mess by pushing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to impeach, the expected outcome wasn't that Trump gets ready for a reelection campaign to spend another four years in the White House.

This absolutely anticlimactic impeachment is going to do nothing but frustrate and depress Democratic voters, who were hoping for some sign that their hatred of Trump would bear fruit. How is that going to work out for the 2020 Democratic candidates who need all those people to turn out for them?

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said immediately after the vote against additional witnesses and evidence that it had been "a sham trial," but he knows that's not true, and it's poor consolation for all the people elected Democrats built up to believe that this, in the end, would mean something.

My guess - RATS will double down on doubling down. That's a real shame.

Boy is Eddie naive. Democrats are like rabid dogs and they will never give up.

Schiff is their Ahab and Trump is their great white whale.

“Boy is Eddie naive.”

He is if he thinks the dems are done impeaching. They’re just getting started.

The Democrats are tearing down everything as they go.

Many said the vote against witnesses made the Senate illegitimate.

They say Trump is illegitimate.

They say Trump’s voters are illegitimate.

The Democrats are on a scorched Earth path that may lead to the end of our republic.

If you think it's bad now, wait until they sell the nomination to Mini Mike.
If he pledges to spend $1,000,000,000 of his own money, think of how many this frees up for the democrats to spend in other places. They could knock off a senator or two and hold the house which allows them to go after impeachment again.

The DNC/DCCC/DSCC are all lagging in fund raising and their shady “nonprofit” PACS are unable to generate the energy they had back in 2018.

I know that this conversation has been going on for a few weeks now because they virtually stopped their traditional fund raising efforts.

The impeachment tactics were preplanned by the lawfare division of the DNC. The idea that NancY Pelosi was forced against her will to pursue impeachment is complete nonsense. I believed the AOC/Gang-of-Four theory, but the DNC’s tact>cs were so clever that they had to have been planning this for much, much longer.

The dems are angrier now than ever before. They will plan another “impeachment,” this time including Pence.

They’re going to get even madder after Trump wins in November.

Schiff is their Ahab and Trump is their great white whale.

At the end of Moby Dick, the whale drowns Ahab and sinks the Pequod.

"...RATS will double down on doubling down."

They probably already have another "impeachment" ready to roll out.

”Ya mean we won’t be hearing from Shitf and his mendacious lies 7x24 anymore?”

If Trump is acquitted Wednesday, new Articles of Impeachment will be drawn up Thursday.

They are guilty of treason. Plain and simple. What is going to happen to them is not nearly what SHOULD happen to them.

You are probably correct.
