House Dems – Majority Support Impeachment!
By Dan Peak
The Commoner Call (8/5/19)
Dear Fellow Readers,
And here we are, a majority of House Dems support impeachment of Trump.
I give the nod to Esquire columnist Charles Pierce because his column is loaded with links to stories of recent declarations of support: Nancy Pelosi Cannot Resist an Impeachment Inquiry Much Longer.
Plus he has style; consider his opening paragraph:
“Here is something that happened while we were all watching John Delaney turn into a mannequin Tom Dewey on national television.”
While summing up Dem presidential candidate John Delaney, he provides a link to Rep Eliot Engel’s (D-NY) calling for impeachment. Pierce then follows with “Here is another thing.” “And another.” “Two more.” “And one more.”
The ‘shoes that dropped’ followed House Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler’s ‘all-but-impeachment’ legal maneuvers. Pierce also points to a New York Times article crediting Senators Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) and Patty Murray (D-WA) with joining the fray.
Even more purple Dem Reps are announcing support. If a poorly received Mueller appearance and a long congressional break until September 9 were to still the waters… the opposite has happened.
The count is now 118. That is where we stand, and that deserves to be the entire message.
