Dems have had an impeachment itch they have been desperate to scratch ever since President Trump took office.
The risk of Trump's heavy-handed request - an aid package to Ukraine was being held up - was that the Ukrainians would have felt compelled to manufacture dirt on the Bidens.
Trump's ask of Zelensky wasn't extortion or a campaign-finance violation under any rational interpretation of our statues.
Unless there is a thermonuclear revelation, impeachment will be an exercise in futility, inevitably ending with Trump's Senate acquittal.
Democrats can point to the precedent of the Clinton impeachment.
If Trump had flagrantly and repeatedly perjured himself, he would have been impeached long ago.
Tens of millions of Trump voters would feel cheated and disenfranchised, and the roiling populism that Trump tapped into would grow stronger, not dissipate.
