    So far.... On impeachment strategy, Pelosi gets an A, Trump an F

    Pelosi's resolution offers the Republicans some real say in how the investigations will proceed from here, but only if they can convince the White House to abandon their stonewalling strategy. The Democrats have cleverly made due process a two-way street -- you only get it if you are a part of the investigative process.

    Pelosi's strategy here illustrates one of the core maxims of her leadership -- never get ahead of your caucus.
    Despite strong criticism from rank and file Democrats who spend the day tweeting and falling out of line with many of the party's presidential candidates, Pelosi waited until the caucus was ready to move on impeachment. Remember, Pelosi is only House speaker because some 40 moderate Democrats beat Republicans in swing and Trump districts in 2018. She only set the formal impeachment process in motion once those members were comfortable with moving forward.

    The second principle of Pelosi's management, as Vox's Ezra Klein reminded us this week, is you don't take a vote until you have the votes and once you have the votes you take the vote immediately. Pelosi's reluctance to put this to a vote on the floor was grounded in that principle -- knowing her caucus needed more of the story to be told about the abuse of power in the White House before they were ready to take the next step.
    ....
    So, if we have reached the end of the first phase of the impeachment, this is the time to give out first term's grades. Democrats and Pelosi get an A. The caucus is together, and they are controlling the main narrative. Republicans in Congress get a B-minus. They've made strong arguments on fairness and partisanship but are undercut by refusing to deal with the underlying facts and the charges of hypocrisy from shifting their standards completely from the impeachment of Bill Clinton.

    As for the White House and the President, they get an F. The President is undisciplined and self-indulgent and is connecting with only his hardcore base. His staff is undercutting him in the briefing room and behind closed doors on the Hill. The lack of any real communications and political infrastructure, what the media refers to as a "war room," leaves them vulnerable to new information from the investigative committees or the whim of their boss the President.

    With the grades in and the resolution passed along party lines, it's time to move on to the next phase.

    I think they're really bad and would have no issues at all if he resigned over them.

    This isn't hard.

    With 1 minute of research you can find out his identity as well.

    Well I went to Ben Shapiros page and he is still for some reason ranting about transgenders

    I guess I’ll go find another trusted media member to see what they are saying about an American patriot

    Mostly bc the community demands everyone now down to them or else were some kind of a bigot.

    Now we are encouraging children to embrace the mental illness that has a suicide rate 40x the average
