Democrats have been trying pretty much since President Donald Trump was elected to figure out some way to impeach him.
They’re fond of claiming that Trump is “upending norms.” Yet it is they who have actually been doing that, from weaponizing Russian conspiracy theories through the FBI and the media to refusing to accept the results of elections. They’ve polarized the country all in the effort to get back power. And they continue to do it, even to suggesting violence against Republicans.
According to the Washington Examiner, Thomas Bowen, a former campaign aide for Barack Obama, was furious that Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said she was not impressed with the Democratic case for impeachment.
In order to actually remove Trump if it were to get to the Senate, you would need to convince people like Murkowski who is widely thought of as a moderate. But when you have no evidence to support your case, that becomes difficult. Not only that, but Murkowski called out the unfairness of the whole process.
“There has been little to no, I think, efforts to try to work with either the Republican House members on the committees, or to kind of come to some terms of rules of engagement,” Murkowski said. “And so it has made this appear even more partisan than perhaps it might have otherwise.”
That caused Bowen to go over the edge. He claimed that the GOP was “so full of sh*t” and “it needs to be burnt to the ground.”
She should spend 15 minutes with Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, and Devin Nunes and then come back to us with how to make it work for Republicans.
This Party is so full of shit. It needs to be burnt to the ground. https://t.co/x2MnXOpl6T

This is the tolerant left. How dare Republicans just quietly not roll over and accept the coup! They must be destroyed according to Bowen. Very troubling that someone in this political climate would put that out there.
Democrats have suggested violence or harassment against Republicans and/or Trump supporters in the past including infamously when Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) encouraged people to confront Trump officials wherever they saw them and “push back” and tell them they are not welcome anywhere.
But it’s this kind of stuff that exposes the Democrats and makes more people vote Republican, to make sure these crazy people don’t get more power.

TDS is a harsh syndrome that melts the brain which seems to have happened to you because if you think any of the opnions & hearsay equals impeachable acts then you are truly lost. pic.twitter.com/7fdkWRaT0i

Translation:
We want power and Trumps amazing economic success is destroying our chances of ever being in control again. So we must destroy the Republican Party.
Tom proves that the Democrats only want one thing. POWER.
