As Twitchy has reported, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer has kicked the Resistance hornets’ nest by telling CNN that, despite (or because of) the release of the Mueller report, “impeachment is not worthwhile at this point,” what with a presidential election scheduled in just 18 months.
That sort of talk is not making hardcore Democrats happy — never mind what the Mueller report says, it was supposed to provide material to impeach President Trump and they want him impeached regardless of if there was collusion with Russia or not. (Narrator: There wasn’t.)
Hillary superfan Peter Daou is among those claiming that impeachment is the only meaningful course of action knowing what we now know.
#Impeachment is the only exercise of constitutional power that would be a MEANINGFUL defense of the rule of law.
The #MuellerReport is a litany of corruption. Trump and his cronies are just getting started dismantling our democracy.
If Dems stand down, they are complicit.

Whoa — if Democrats (like Steny Hoyer) stand down, they are complicit in the dismantling of our democracy.
let's start the protests for impeachment https://t.co/2ovjKiQCfl

Yes, let’s follow up the pre-Mueller report protest march with the post-Mueller report protest march. Remember how many Democrats said they were going to take to the streets to get this done?
Please explain what in the report is a litany of corruption? Seriously, you all fling that shit around like hogs in a pig pen and see if the shit sticks…the report is very clear. No collusion. The dismantling is when the Dems attempted to undo an election they lost. #losers

Please … cite one constitutional law that you can prove he broke. Failed Entrapment attempts by FBI? Illegal!
You’re so used to the unconstitutional job from the last prez, you don’t understand true law if it smacked ya in your constitution.

When you wake up tomorrow, and every day after that, Hillary will still not be president. Once you accept that and move on, you will be less likely to give yourself a stroke.

Trump yelling “No collusion” when, in fact, there was no collusion is “obstruction” to Liberals.
So go ahead. Impeach him. Dare ya.
Because you will guarantee a #Trump2020 victory.— Bonnie O (@bloc52) April 18, 2019
Aren’t you the guy who has been certain there was collusion?

I pray that your side is foolish enough to pursue impeachment

Bring it ! Trump gets his second term on a silver platter!

I want Democrats to try to impeach Trump. At this rate they'll hand him a third term. https://t.co/XBwMiCmbwk

Bring it bitch.

I really do hope that the @HouseDemocrats take your advice here. The only thing this will guarantee is a Trump re-election and the Democrats out of power for a generation. #CollusionDelusion #CollusionTruthers

Doubling down on the insanity. You're like the crazy people who think there really were WMDs in Iraq. I'll go a step further, you're like people who think the twin towers were brought down by lasers.

It's Mueller Time guys. Poor Democrats, the party of slavery. If only they had better mommies and daddies, they'd not be such broken loser people.

#MuellerReport You lost, get over it.

Sir, it is of upmost importance to the fate of our wounded nation that you start spinning records at DIY basement shows.

Nice try, Pete
However, @juliaioffe, @brianbeutler, @maggieNYT, and @pbump have had more insane takes so far
You need to step up your game, boy
— Bryan S. Matthews (@BryanMatthews74) April 18, 2019
It’s true … all of the Democrats in media have unleashed their hottest takes Thursday, but President Trump is not feeling any heat … it’s Democrats like Nancy Pelosi and Hoyer who are getting burned on social media.
You really are going there?

You are losing it. Unfollowing.
