hasn't Vex been for impeachment? I could be wrong, but seems odd that he is suddenly against it now that it is happening...and that Tulsi came out against it (lol lol)

Right. No one has been able to explain to me how the GOP "paid the price" for impeaching, beyond lost seats. Which didn't amount to much.

A lot of people gloss over this. If the GOP has "lost" since 98, please sign me up for losing.

The Dems just need to play it right.
I get that some are cautious, but some are just unwilling to think critically about this.
