So your argument for them to impeach is that by showing they're willing to waste time, it shows they want to get stuff done? That by failing to do anything, it will prove how fit they are for office?

Hollow threats and empty gestures are why we're in this mess in the first place. The democrats pretended they'd protect abortion access for years - they shouted about it every chance they got, but never codified it into law, even when they had the house, senate, and presidency. They do this all the time. We don't need more puffery. We need to find people who can actually get work done, and weed out the ones who pretend.

Note that I haven't once said "don't hold people accountable." All I'm saying is don't waste time. They need to: Get work done. Get reelected. Charge people when they actually have the ability to convict and punish. They can be spiteful and petty, but it's pointless it they're not also smart. Otherwise, come next election cycle, people will just vote the republicans back in because the democrats "can't ever get anything done."

This is like Mamdani admitting he can't arrest Netanyahu and instead focusing on what he can actually do in NYC. He looked into it, realized he didn't have the ability, and turned his attention to housing, healthcare, etc. The difference is there's no reason to waste time looking into it - we already know the house/senate can't do anything.
