Episode notes
Impeachment Precedent
- Democrats set a precedent by impeaching Trump without alleging specific crimes.
- This normalized impeachment as a political tool, opening the door for Republicans to reciprocate.
Impeachment Inquiry Without Vote
- McCarthy initiated the impeachment inquiry without a House vote, unlike Pelosi with Trump.
- This might be perceived as a weakness, echoing Trump's DOJ's argument against Pelosi's inquiry.
Lack of Majority Support?
- McCarthy's lack of a House vote for the inquiry suggests a potential lack of majority support.
- This raises doubts about securing enough votes for actual impeachment later.
