    I’m pretty sure impeachment proceedings can just be started by McCarthy whenever he wants.

    Removal requires a majority so that won’t happen, but impeachment matters. Do you think Trump lost for no reason?

            Only because none of the Left’s political leadership is willing to actually mobilize the masses!

            Which is what I’ve been calling for this whole thread!

              In the House, the Left is in the minority, the entire Democratic body could mobilize against McCarthy and he wouldn’t give two shits, because as far as he’s concerned, they’re already against him. They’re the minority, he doesn’t have to care.
