I enjoyed your Ted Talk very much! It was awesome!

Like a real life Milgram experiment.

What is the root of it?

Well, this is certainly the pragmatic approach.

Shit. I tried to edit that part out. Mainly because I don’t want to personalize it to artificially buttress the points that I was trying to make. I got a little triggered by the “go see a physician” burn, but that does not excuse me behaving badly.

Impeachment is not designed to be a strategy to override elections.

The simple truth is Democrats don’t believe their bullshit Tom Clancy stories of Trump being a Russian asset. That’s the true reason impeachment is off the table.
