The Democrats have a solution in mind - impeachment - and have been searching since Election Day 2016 for a problem to which to apply it.
Democrats want to impeach Trump for leaning on the Ukrainians about the Biden's family's shady dealings - and they are shady - with that corrupt regime and its sycophants.
There are many problems with this approach, one of which is this: Americans in possession of even a modest political memory must recall that not only did Democrats insist that the 2016 election was illegitimate, they also insisted that the last election that brought a Republican to the White House was illegitimate.
Democrats did not decide to try to impeach Trump in September 2019 because he apparently saw Peter Schweizer on Fox News and then brought up the Bidens with the Ukrainians.
No, the Democrats had long ago decided to try to impeach Trump, and they decided to do so in December 2016 - because he won.
The Democrats have a funny habit when it comes to elections: When they win, they act like they'll never lose again, and when they lose, they act like they'll never win again.
Making impeachment inquiries an ordinary part of daily partisan politics may look smart to congressional Democrats right now, and to Democratic presidential aspirants.
