re: #125 Yeah Sure WhatEVs

Isn’t that the point?

Maher’s argument is basically that of the anti-impeachment crowd of this time last year: “If you impeach him, then he’ll feel ‘emboldened because he’ll feel vindicated/acquitted/etc.”

But what was the functional difference at the time? Maher says it’s because Donny feels “safe” to go after IGs, but he was going after his “enemies” before he was impeached. If you don’t think so, then let’s call up Comey and McCabe and ask them if they feel like he was all that constrained before impeachment. Hell, he fired Jeff Sessions before Mueller had even finished his investigation, then brought on not one but two different AGs to fuck with said investigation.
