How to interpret what House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders say about impeachment?
Perhaps this way: They are always looking for a new and better way to sell the product. Remember that they spent more than two years accusing President Trump of conspiring with Russia to fix the 2016 election, of being a tool of Vladimir Putin, of being a Russian asset. Then, in September, they turned on a dime to Ukraine.
They accused Trump of denying Ukraine "desperately needed," "critical" aid as a way of getting dirt on a political opponent. They said he was guilty of a quid pro quo, then extortion, and then, after conducting a focus group to find a charge that would have the greatest impact, they accused him of bribery.
Now, after three months of focusing like a laser beam on Ukraine, they have returned to ... Russia.
