Trump and the Republicans just had a disaster of an election night on Tuesday, and in a week, they will be facing public impeachment hearings of their president. Things have gone from bad to even worse for Republicans in less than 24 hours.
If public opinion moves on impeachment it will be these hearings that drive the change.
The American people are going to get to hear firsthand from the witnesses to Donald Trump’s impeachable Ukraine shakedown.
Trump is already obsessed with impeachment. These hearings should push him to a new level of frantic desperation.
