The Trump accusations are completely different, and there just has to be a level of fatigue with the whole process. Id have no doubt a huge portion of Americans are over it and just want him to get on with the job. The fact the allegations are about 'invisible' things "RUSSIANS", "UKRAINE" etc has to be a problem getting any support for it.
Plus this has been going on for 3 years now, there was a news article showing the first "Impeach Trump" article was posted 19 minutes after the bloke was elected. He can easily claim the victim role, and his base will lap it up.
Plus, the elephant in the room, who the **** is gonna run for the Dems? If they had a legit 'Presidential' candidate like Obama, or Bill Clinton he would be in trouble. But lets face it, theres not one of these jokers up there that stand a chance against him. They are either way too delusional, way too woke and the only one who is anywhere near the middle is considered by Dems to be a Republican plant. They scream slogans and have grand ideas, but the first line of any detailed questioning destroys them. They all remind me of Shorten at the last election. Bloke was so unprepared and had no real grasp on his own policies, let alone any belief, that he was fodder for anyone who went after him.
The party is in a mess.
