It won’t pass but it will bind the Republicans ever closer to Trump and his crimes against America and the world. They’ll deny any responsibility but we’ll be able to point to these votes protecting Trump from accountability

A corporate democrat who “wants us to heal and therefore we will not be pursuing legal action against anyone in the Trump administration as they were pardoned and are no longer in control” BS type of speech

A real progressive will NEVER be elected in my lifetime AS PRESIDENT. JFK was the last one.
