| 0:00.0 | For the past several years, we've had to endure wasted time and nonsense in the media and political landscape over Russia conspiracies. |
| 0:08.7 | And it was all nothing. Literally nothing made up nonsense for years. How frustrating. Feels like we wasted all of our time was wasted talking about Russia, Russia, Russia. |
| 0:20.3 | Now that's over, you'd think we'd be able to move on, but we can't because now the Democrats want to investigate Trump over crimes he may have committed during Russia gate. |
| 0:28.7 | Look, I get it, man. Maybe it's something wrong, but I'm just so over this. Can you please get back to legislating and doing your jobs instead of winging over having lost in 2016? |
| 0:40.0 | Why is this a thing? Well, apparently they want to impeach Trump over what he may have done. But most people don't care and don't want this to happen. |
| 0:48.9 | Not only is Russia an obstruction and not a top issue for most voters, most people have plainly stated they do not want Trump to be impeached. |
| 0:58.2 | Now a lot of people do want Trump out. Great. That'll happen to the ballot box. And that's the way it should happen. Not impeachment. |
| 1:05.2 | So why are the Democrats doing this? Honestly, I can't tell you definitively. What I can say though is I think they fear this may be their only chance to play whatever last ditch card they have against Trump. |
| 1:18.7 | Can they go after him on policy? Probably not. They've been chasing after the far left. All these policies, they're fractured. Moderates and far left fractured. |
| 1:26.8 | We know it. Okay, we can see the fighting between Pelosi and the squad. So what do they have? Hell Mary pass. Okay, impeachment. Only way you're going to beat Trump in 2020. |
| 1:37.9 | Because of all the advantages he has, there's no policy position they could take that would win, especially when they continually embrace the far left. |
| 1:44.7 | With now Bernie Sanders bringing on Linda Sarsour as a campaign surrogate, they've lost it. But AOC is also calling for impeachment. Here's the thing. |
| 1:53.8 | According to one report that I had read in the past, I don't have a pulled up. They said the reason the Democrats took the house in 2018 was because Trump's voters are not your typical Republicans and they only came out for Trump. |
| 2:07.5 | They didn't come out and vote in 2018. But in 2020, they will come back out for Trump. What that means? They're going to check R across the board, which will result in Republicans sweeping and potentially taking back the house. |
| 2:23.0 | Now there is some fear due to a wave of Republican resignations and retirements. They might not be able to do it. But the chance is still there. A good chance that Trump's base will elect these Republicans, in which case the Democrats have to act now, even if Americans don't want them to. |
| 2:39.7 | Congratulations. You're taking an unpopular action, which will probably hurt you come 2020. But here's the thing. If the Democrats believe they're going to lose the house, then they don't care if they take unpopular action. |
| 2:52.3 | Because they already expect to lose the house. Well, I got a bunch of stories pulled up. Let's read about what's going on. And I want to show some polling data as well as what's going to happen with the house and why impeachment may be a priority. |
| 3:05.4 | It could just be a last-ditch effort, regardless of anything else. But we have this story from Politico. House Judiciary Panel preparing vote to define Trump impeachment probe. |
| 3:14.9 | We're also hearing from the Washington Post. Judiciary Panel to activate rare impeachment time authorities highlighting divide in Chambers and Game. |
| 3:24.3 | And there is something else interesting. Ocasio Cortez is demanding impeachment due to something Trump did in the springtime where he stayed at one of his own resorts. |
| 3:33.7 | We'll read this and try and break down what's actually happening. Let's start with Politico. |
| 3:37.4 | Now, before we do, head over to Timcast.com slash donate in order to support my work. There is a PayPal option, a crypto option, a physical address. You can send things to. |
