that happens?

This is a good time to remember that Republicans in Congress did not support impeaching Richard Nixon until suddenly, they did.

It's quite simple. Do Republicans really want to live in a country where it becomes normal for a President to extort foreign governments to punish his opponents, corrupt our national security, threaten public servants, stonewall Congress and lie about it?

Have you read the whistle-blower's report?
