re: #280 Dread Pirate

I expect very little of Mitch McConnell—who has made clear that there is no democratic norm he won’t trade for greed and power—but even I am shocked by his proposed kangaroo one-week impeachment trial. https://t.co/6DrpmOMGoR

Trump was impeached. We knew that was the most likely outcome, and we should build on that. It would be a shock if Trump were removed, because McConnell is working as hard as he can to end this so that he can concentrate on keeping the Senate. He’s keeping House bills from coming up for a vote so that vulnerable Republicans don’t have to make a choice.

Trump’s removal would cost him his job.
