Pelosi looks to be sending the impeachment articles to the Senate next week. There is no shortage of advice for her as to how to proceed. Pelosi never acts without thinking several steps ahead, so there must be a reason to send the articles now. Perhaps Susan Collins has grown a spine.
Stop laughing.
No, stop it.
OK, so it's unlikely Senate Republicans will do their constitutional duty. It is unlikely that John Bolton will come in and save the day. It's unlikely that Democrats will be able to introduce new evidence in the Senate at all.
Instead, they seem to be banking on tying the entire GOP to Trump's crimes, then wait as more and more crimes trickle out. It's not a terrible strategy, since the only way to remove Trump from office is the election (or a massive KFC-fueled coronary).
Still, "impeachment" was never going to be as satisfying for Democrats as it was upsetting to the malignant narcissist-in-chief.
