Good Thread

This is a great Twitter thread about the strident, desperate cries to "do something."

Most people simply aren't caring about Trump's violation of political norms.  They don't live and die by the news feed. There's a horse loose in the hospital, and they simply don't want to deal with it. This is why impeachment polls badly: most people simply don't care.  But most people want the horse out of the hospital.

The wailing about the timeline for getting the horse out of the hospital is largely a by-product of the closeness you feel towards the hospital and the amount of time you spend following the story.
