Sean Davis: Anti-Trump Impeachment Theater Is ‘Watergate Cosplay’ For Democrats
thefederalist ^ | 11/21/2019 | The Federalist Staff

Posted on 11/21/2019 8:10:01 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Sean Davis, co-founder of The Federalist, joined “Tucker Carlson Tonight” on Wednesday to recap another day of House Democrats playacting at their partisan, anti-Trump impeachment hearings.

“I think we learned that the Democrats are quite convinced they need to keep going with this Watergate cosplay in Washington,” Davis said. “We learned no new facts. We heard the same stuff we’ve heard over and over again. We saw the same playacting.”

Davis said the only thing he has learned from the House Intelligence Committee’s theater is how committed Democrats are to the farce of impeachment they have been pursuing for three years.

What should happen tomorrow , after all this empty testimony from this week is over, should be commercial after commercial asking Democrats if they really believe voting for impeachment is going to get them re-elected.

Any candidate in a primary should be asking the same of their opponent.

Folks in red districts with Dim representation should be ringing the phone off the hook about how their Rep should be voting if they represent their constituents and the ramifications if they don't.

When are sane Democrat Senators going to march to Pelosi’s office and ask her to resign?

I still prefer the name “’Stalin show trial in Freedonia’ as performed by the Marx Brothers.” (smirk)

Good description.

Like Hollywod, all Dems can do are remakes or reboots.

I saw them trying to include Pence as much as possible, just the way they took out Nixon and Agnew in tandem. Only difference was they had already approved their favorite Republican, Gerald Ford to be vice president. They want Batshit Nancy.

Every time I hear any references to Watergate unironically, I just roll my eyes and say “whatever, boomer”, which is the few times the phrase it actually justified.

Watergate, whatever you think of it, was actually done halfway seriously, by mostly mature and competent people, over a real issue.

Now ever 65+ year old talking head tries to shoehorn-in dusty references to people that were barely known to people in the 90s.

Towards the end of the Roman republic, a senator who had been elected tribune of plebs, got a law passed (the lex varia) which enabled him to set up a commission to try people for treason.

Because the jury was composed of his political allies from the equestrian order (ordo equites), he used the commission to convict and exile people who did not agree with him politically.

This commission was called, in English, the "Varian Commission".

Since the house impeachment committee is set up for the exact same reason, I propose it be renamed the "Shiffian Commission".

If Trump thinks the Fake Impeachment is actually helping him, why make the deal?
