^^^ Agree. Optics are much more accurate than they intended.

How better to let the cult fill in the blanks with their own already programmed in images and thoughts.

Trump still has ink stains on his hands from stealing classified documents, yet some in the GOP are actually planning to impeach Biden if they win the House. Repugnants, clueless and shameless.

GOP lawmaker suggests there's 'pressure' on Republicans to impeach Biden if party wins the House

That the Republicans intend to impeach the president that was the choice of the American people, by popular vote and electoral college, ought to be up front in every Dems campaign materials. That the GOP does not care about the will of the people. Make any Republican running for office explain why they want to overrule the will of the people.

The GQP cult is telling, even yelling, plainly and proudly showing who they really are. What their plans are for the coming storm.

Someday there will be the "if only we knew" from those who now ignore what is very apparent. Will be to late.....

To me, that's not what's upsetting about this. There may well be occasions where a President who won both the popular vote and electoral college deserves to be impeached for his (illegal) actions. The issue here is that the GOP announcing that they may to impeach Biden simply for the sake of revenge, not for any "high crimes and misdemeanor."

In the words of Ted Cruz:

“Yeah, I do think there’s a chance of that, whether it’s justified or not...(Y)ou know, what’s good for the goose is good for the gander.”

While DeSantis was flying legal asylum seekers to Martha's Vineyard, business owners in his state were struggling for workers

Agree with you, several years from now chances are that Democracy as a form of governance will be abandoned as a failed experiment and "We the People" will be redefined.

If one cannot be for all of the people all of the time, Democracy fails. And we are now past that point when Trumpism masquerades as democracy and Roe was overturned relegating women to second class citizens.

2nd Amendment has morphed into an NRA marketing strategy and as such is a joke. "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State.............", how is that going to actually work now.

The way I see things happening is the right cult will win an enough elections fairly. Then will endeavor to insure remaining in power changing laws, safe guards, eliminating voters, intimation of opposition, and of course force.

Texas AG Ken Paxton fled his home Monday in a truck driven by his wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton, to avoid being served a subpoena from an abortion fund’s lawsuit against the state, according to an affidavit filed in federal court.
