in politics, perception is everything...

“They need about 3% of otherwise Trump voters to withhold their votes.
Getting Trump labeled “impeached” is enough to achieve that.”

Peddle your defeatism somewhere else.

buried deep in the article:
Two Democrats voted against it: Representative Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey and Collin Peterson of Minnesota...
So, not only did ZERO Republicans vote for it, but some Democrats voted AGAINST this Halloween witch hunt.
In a statement after the vote, Van Drew said:
"
Today, I voted Nay on H.Res. 660. Without bipartisan support I believe this inquiry will further divide the country tearing it apart at the seams and will ultimately fail in the Senate. However, now that the vote has taken place and we are moving forward I will be making a judgement call based on all the evidence presented by these investigations. My hope is that we are still able to get some work done to help the American people like infrastructure, veteran’s benefits, environmental protections, immigration reform, reducing prescription drug cost, and strengthening Social Security.”

Well, that’s what I meant. They voted for the inquiry. Sorry....It’s still stupid. There is no reason...

No they didn’t - they voted for the closed door “investigations” they’ve already been doing.

That is the second best option. Always a chance of something going wrong in a trial.

The Deep State is desperate.
Ironic how much they rely on quid quo pro to siphon off money.
They will protect their cash cows at all costs.

this was a vote that Republicans and the White House had been demanding for weeks—an official resolution
false statement.
conservatives wanted an agreement which is NOT the same as a resolution. resolutions are technically NOT binding. They also wanted parity on all elements of investigation and interviewing of so called witnesses... and full participation continuously for the executive branch lawyers etc...
