That's the thing: what is happening right now, is doing so at the behest of We The People - who shouldn't be wanting it to happen, but nevertheless, they DO.
I heard that Nixon's impeachment was similar. Before it happened people absolutely refused to believe it. Then when all the stuff came out, they were shocked, but they believed what the news media has said.
Since that time, the game has changed... people heard the facts about Trump, and refused to believe it or refused to care if they did. So long as the libs are sufficiently PWNed, it doesn't matter what else happens: we will continue to shoot ourselves in (previously) vital organs, just for spite.
Exactly as the people funding conservative media sources seem to want to happen...
