Actually that was just another RINO ploy pushed by RINO supporters to shut conservatives up and get their RINO elected. They are now in “We can’t” and “Thats stupid” mode.
It certainly wasn’t the conservatives who were saying it. It was okay then, though. It might even have helped us a bit. But now we have no such excuse. “Impeach” was my tag line for a while a few years ago but I didn’t have much company.
