No. 3 Senate Democrat calls for House to begin impeachment proceedings against Trump
By Rebecca Klar - 07/28/19 05:55 PM EDT

Sen. Pat Murray (D-Wash.), the number three Senate Democrat, called for House Democrats to begin impeachment inquiries on Sunday.

"I agree with my fellow members of the Washington delegation that, as we have learned about the gravity of the potential threats to our democracy identified in special counsel Mueller's report, it has become clear that the House should begin proceedings to determine whether the president's action necessitate impeachment," Murray said in a statement shared by NBC News reporter Frank Thorp on Twitter.

Let them take yet another vote that will ultimately fail.

Good point.
I'm thinkin' that by September/October 2020 -- when it looks like Mr. Trump really has a path leading to a second term -- THAT'S when you'll see the democrat-communists go all-out for impeachment, with a vote for same in the House.

Even if "they've got nuthin'" ... they're gonna try anyway, in a last breath of desperation.

I think it will start a might earlier... About as soon as the Republican candidate is set-in-stone, and committed to... THEN they'll drag out the highly orchestrated dog-and-pony show, and it will go on and on, for about a year... With an October surprise to fall back on...

Nope @Fishrrman wasn't me.  But ... their game is over with the Mueller report.  They will try to pin something else on him ... they may try again to conjure up something, but I think the public is starting to get weary of all the games.

Note that the headline matches the excerpt only if you squint and view the screen at just the right angle.

Now or September/October surprise (2020), I sincerely hope the Dems make that massive mistake.
