I would say that it is their job to do in the "Two-Party Cartel". Anything to keep the conservative agenda from getting in the way of the elites that run the whole show.
What is happening right now is alot of Democrat operatives are making alot of money from their base. This is nothing more than the Democrats playbook of the Vietnam/Watergate template as Rush would say.
Nothing will come of this then they will try something else. We have 3 more years of this folks.
