Think about what happened here, about what is described in that report. The country’s elections were attacked by a foreign power. Russia is a vote suppressor. Understanding that,what motivation would this President have to move a finger to stop them? Or the Republican Party, for that matter? Theonly hope for accountability, perhaps before a court of law after Trump isno longer President, is theDemocratic Party that has the power to start impeachment proceedings.
Should Democrats take impeachment off thetable, they would let Trump get away with it. It is that elementary. There is no guarantee that he will not repeat the very same encouragement of those Russian efforts, all the while playing dumb so as to avoid legal culpability.
If Democrats were smarter,they would understand that initiating the impeachment of Trump might actually galvanize their base because it would demonstrate that leadership was willing to take the obvious, the logical and the constitutional step once presented with such an abundance of evidence. They would grasp that the visual of their party standing up to a president wedded equally to corruption and to his assortment of bigotries would be appealing to an electorate where black voters are increasingly driving the conversation.Democrats would seize upon the Mueller Report as a flashpoint for organization and recruitment, rather than take the task of prosecution that the Constitution assigned to Congress, hand it off to voters and call that “democracy.”It is up to us as citizens to choose our elected officials, not to do their jobs for them.
All this anger from theseearly Democratic soundbites, I do wonder where it is going and whether it will ever find a more productive home than a cable news segment or my inbox. Impeaching Barr for performing as Trump’s defense attorney would be a good place to start

Disbelief. This country is going to crap.

Ummmmmmmmmm. Obama was President in 2016 yo.
The only ones needing impeaching are in the House.
The time for a lying sleazy almost extinct fossil mag is here.
As a boomer, I thought that mag sucked and was written at the third grade level even them. Now, it’s still at the third grade level, but given today’s public schools - third grade is the old pre-school.
The country can not have 10 years of lies and continue as it were.
Wow I miss even 2004. Back then we worried about Islamic terrorists.
Now they are feted and put into office.
If a civil war comes out of this then I intended to remember Jamil Smith.

I agree. The PRESIDENT — during the 2016 election — didn’t lift a FINGER to stop the Russians.
Why?
Rolling Stoned is what the entire left is doing.
Did these stoners demand the impeachment of Øbowel for interfering in Israel’s elections?
” Impeaching Barr for performing as Trump’s defense attorney would be a good place to start”
Rolling Stone makes Newsweek seem reasonable.

No bias with good `ol Mr Smith, no sir!
.
It’s not like Trump was caught on a hot mike telling a Russian government official:” Tell Mr. Putin that I will have more flexibility after the election”.
What would be the point?
They don’t have the Senate, and aren’t likely to any time soon......................
The problem is locating the appropriate targets.
time to get that machine that forces ones head up ones ass to be ready for whats coming to these leftard tools
boycott
"Get away" with what, exactly? (crickets)
WTF????
Don’t these idiots even understand what the report said? No collusion, no obstruction. Too much drug use I guess.
Far left is pushing big time for House to move to impeach.
