House Republicans know that their rapidly shrinking majorityāand their lack of evidenceāhas put them in an impossible position.
Despite drumbeating for more than a year to impeach Joe Biden, House Republicans have quietly begun looking for an off-ramp in the face of an overwhelming lack of evidence against the presidentāand a rapidly shrinking majority in the chamber.
Republicans have accused Biden and his son Hunter of corruption and influence peddling, but their lengthy investigation has failed to turn up any proof of the presidentās wrongdoing. In fact, the biggest criminal act revealed during the course of the probe was committed by the GOPās own star witness, Alexander Smirnov. The Department of Justice has accused him of making up the allegations against the Biden family that jump-started the whole impeachment effort.
As the investigation crumbles, Republicans are starting to sour on it entirely. āI donāt think we have the will to impeach Joe Biden,ā Texas Representative Troy Nehls told Fox News on Tuesday. āWe just donāt.ā
Presumably because they already hinted at that joke, I just didnāt think it was obvious enough. Others clearly disagreed
I thought my hints were pretty obvious, without being overt. I didnāt downvote you, but I did consider replying with the olā āthatās the jokeā meme.
Meh, if itās not a serious comment then down voted donāt really matter. If it was, itād be more disappointing because that tends to stifle conversation.
