It’s pretty depressing that by modern standards the Lewinsky affair, and even Watergate, would be considered a normal Tuesday.

The worst part is that the Republicans already weaponized impeachment against Clinton in the 90s so it wouldn’t be setting any precedent, other than actuall impeaching for real crimes.
Dems also love to throw their hands up if a win isn’t guaranteed, while Republicans throw shit on the wall and make a big deal about it to motivate their voters so they eventually win. Dems would do a lot better if they tried and failed and made a big deal about Republican obstruction for more than a single soundbite. They constantly move on to the next thing they think might work and waste time trying for bipartisanship when that ship sailed decades ago.
Dems keep acting like we are in a finctioning democracy because they are stupid.

A huge factor is that they can’t because all mainstream media is controlled by Republicans.
You can’t get a message out when it won’t be aired.
