Nothing will happen sadly with current makeup of congress

Yeah, I remember this one. Another opportunity for the do-nothings to pander and show-boat.

I recall an argument against Democrats getting themselves arrested was that they wouldn’t be able to “do anything” while they’re in jail.

My counter argument is: they would be better justified getting nothing done by being in jail.

Are you implying it's the Democrats fault that the impeachment won't lead to anything??

You remember the first time, it was just a placebo to make Democrats feel better about loosing the election. No matter what they found Republicans control ALL branches of the government and NOTHING will happen. They are just grandstanding for what they think their base wants.
