Peggy Noonan: As to impeachment itself, the case has been so clearly made you wonder what exactly the Senate will be left doing. And the worrisome answer is: Theyll sow chaos and division to distract from facts and let Trump walk.

She's right. I just hope those Republicans suffer badly at the ballot box for turning their backs on America.

She always struck me as one of those brittle, haughty ultra-wealthy society matrons who nods curtly at the doorman in the mornings, and talks to the 'help' as little as possible unless she's reprimanding them for something petty.

And, no, we don't wonder. Beschloss is exactly right. Because that's the GOP you helped create.

There needs to be a insta-factcheck. I hope the Democrats open up a war room, you know the Republicans have, with their lock-step talking points.
