Classic case of Dem pols following opinion instead of leading and convincing people to do what’s right. They are horrible at their jobs aside from the part that’s about keeping their jobs and even that is sketch at best.
The NBC/WSJ poll found only 27% of the public wants to begin "hearings to consider impeaching and removing President Trump from office."
Dem leaders' behavior is really not mysterious.

Mic drop by @RepRaskin “Our colleagues aren’t upset you lied to Congress on behalf of the President. They’re upset you STOPPED lying for the President."
@debiguity I’m coming around to that. Her experience and knowledge will be key in this situation. I do think as a minority leader she played it too safe.
I think it’s possible to both agree with this and think it’s time for new leadership BUT maybe let Pelosi take the heat for a few more years and step down before 2020.
Pelosi didn't cost Democrats a single seat. And anyone who thinks that a Pelosi replacement wouldn't get the same right-wing-noise-machine treatment is hopelessly naive. They'll demonize any Dem, and do so in zero time flat. Letting them dictate our leaders is idiotic.
With a Democratic House of Representatives coming DC @MayorBowser says she will propose new legislation to tax and regulate the sale of recreational marijuana @DCMJ2014
Remember this, the next time someone suggests Republicans rein in Trump:
Flake could endorse Sinema, didn’t. Corker could endorse Bredesen, didn’t.
Kasich could endorse Brown, didn’t.
Why? Because there are no moderate elected Republicans. The rot runs deep.
Just concluded briefing @POTUS with @FBI and @ODNIgov on steps @DHSgov and our partners are taking to protect #Election infrastructure. We are working with state and local election officials to ensure that every vote counts and will be counted correctly.
@rcannon100 Doesn’t make a difference for this guy. Hopefully makes a different stopping the next - and especially if they’re part of group the spreads the hate that radicalizes the terrorists
