until Democrats win back the House and can get a vote to impeach. Even then, it takes a 2/3 vote in the senate to convict and chances of the Democrats winning the Senate back next year are remote.

Trump is in jeopardy. Trump will be out within months.

That type of thinking is so pathetic and damaging in terms of big picture reality. An incumbent isn't going anywhere. Trump is far more likely to serve 8 years than less than 4.

Instead of using this time block to prioritize registration drives that would overwhelmingly favor our side given Trump's 35ish approval, we're wasting time whining about every outrageous comment, and this joker throws away $10 million.

Democrats are inept handicappers. The party really should hire some of the guys from 538 for a megadose of reality and help. At least that would point the way to rescuing some margin for error here and there.
