Pelosi did no favors by taking impeachment off the table. She gave the GOP far more credit for being ethical than they deserve.

To be fair though the media makes everything harder for democrats. There's like a Jedi Mind Trick going on re: the president's success and the ridiculous idea that the party is as far to the left as the Republicans are to the right. That's the biggest problem if you ask me.

A little honesty from the press and less politics in the media would go a long way to informing Americans. Everything is shown through the lens of politics today. It's destructive.
