It's time to stop cowering



Democrats have been tiptoeing around the subject of impeaching Trump, some distancing themselves from the idea in fear that it will motivate his zombie horde of followers to get out the vote.

We Democrats have got to stop cowering. It's not a new problem for us liberals - remember when Ron Silver's character on The West Wing finally flipped his wig on this subject? ....



We've got to stop being so tentative - of course Trump should be impeached! Holy mackerel, what more does he have to do to deserve removal?

And don't worry about energizing Republican voters because they are already there - hatred and greed are serious motivators.

There are just 18 days until the election. It is past time for us to own being the force for good that must rescue our country from the abomination of Trumpism.

I like that speech from "West Wing" and the actor plays a really insightful character.

I've watched old episodes over the last couple of months out of nostalgia for a time when acting with class in politics was more believable.

Hi Denny :) I liked that show a lot too. The producer and writer of The West Wing, Lawrence O'Donnell, has a news commentary show now on MSNBC that I sometimes watch - The Last Word.
