As a lifelong conscientious moderate who despises strict partisanship, I am sickened by the partisan impeachment. The only reason it was partisan is because the current Republicans, in a state of mass denial, defended the indefensible.
Our only recourse is to demonstrate our disappointment and disapproval with our vote.
Reps. Stewart, Curtis and Bishop would be howling for impeachment if a Democratic president had committed a fraction of our current president’s misdeeds. All three of these men had a chance to stand up for our democratic principles and institutions and failed.
I seriously doubt there will be 20 brave souls in the Republican senate with enough grit to step forward.
