The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that only 32% of Likely U.S. Voters think House Democrats should continue their efforts to remove Trump from office. Sixty-two percent (62%) say Democrats in Congress should now focus on other issues. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
For Democratic voters, it’s a close call: 48% say their representatives in the House should continue their efforts to remove Trump from the White House, but 43% say they should focus on other issues. Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Republicans and 70% of voters not affiliated with either major party say House Democrats should zero in on other issues.
Fifty-five percent (55%) of all voters think the unsuccessful attempt to remove Trump from office has made him stronger politically. Just 16% say it has made him weaker, while 23% believe the failed impeachment effort has had no impact.
This should sort of be a no-brainer at this point. Don't impeach a President unless you honestly believe he can be removed. Otherwise you end up consolidating support for the President and making yourself look petty and weak. It happened with Clinton and now it's happening with Trump.
The fact that 16% believe he has been weakened is only surprising because the tangible numbers really point to the fact that he has gotten stronger. Pretty sure that 16% represent only the most obtuse and mindless partisans. Pelosi's "impeached forever" concept is falling on deaf ears. One can only hope that they make it a campaign issue!

move on. move on.
huh.
i recall hearing those words once regarding a failed impeachment attempt.
can't quite put my finger on it though.
Seems to me if you really believed this, you'd be saying,
KEEP ON ATTACKING HIM!!! KEEP ON!!!
Apparently you are afraid that this will eventually lead to his downfall.
I think you are right to be afraid. :-)
And again,
You keep shouting,
Move on! Move on! Move on!
But Ch, if it is hurting us as much as you are claiming, why aren't you shouting,
Keep it up! Keep it up! Keep it up!
Hmmmm?
Could we have for once a SIMPLE answer to that?
Maybe this scared you?
The Case for Impeaching Trump Again
February 10, 2020
George Conway:
“So just as we had Nixon’s enemies list, so we have had three years of Trump’s use of presidential power for vindictive ends. Long before the Vindmans and Sondland, the firing of James B. Comey as FBI director. Trump’s alleged directive to the Pentagon to ‘screw Amazon,’ whose chief executive owns this newspaper, which, frankly, ought by itself to have been an impeachable offense. So, too, his threats against Google, Facebook and Twitter. His obvious punishment of Puerto Rico for its politicians’ criticisms of him. His attacks on a British ambassador who dared assess him critically. The Ukraine scandal itself, indeed, was partially an effort to attain vengeance for wrongs — Ukrainian ‘interference’ — Trump imagines were done to him in 2016. He’ll use whatever means he has at his presidential disposal to redress his bottomless pit of grievances.
“And he’ll only get worse. Narcissistic leaders such as Trump always do. As we’ve now seen, his rage leads to retribution and misconduct, which beget more criticism, and more investigation, and even more rage, retribution and misconduct. Over and over again.
“So America beware:
The state is Trump, and he’s very, very angry. We might, indeed, have to do it again.”
____________
Yep.
The deep state is Trump
and the swamp is Trump.
Do you have trouble with simple comprehension, Reverend Hypocrite!
It's not "me" telling anyone to "move on" - it's the American public! In fact the American public is telling Democrats to "move on" by a nearly two to one margin.
You might want to read the last sentence in this short post...
Since obviously you didn't get that far?
Perhaps if you could read and comprehend, your stupid questions would answer themselves.
CHT Nailed Jane to the mat.
"except, of course, people who are too emotional immature to move on."
James is reduced to quoting George
Conway? Lol. Oh dear.
A Quinnipiac University poll suggests that Biden’s support is being cannibalized by former New York mayor Mike Bloomberg.
Germ-Phobic Trump Confronts a Growing Epidemic
“When an outbreak of the Ebola virus touched the United States’ shores in mid-2014, Donald Trump was still a private citizen. But he had strong opinions about how America should act,” the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump, who has spoken openly about his phobia of germs, closely followed the epidemic, and offered angry commentary about what he said was the Obama administration’s dangerous response. He demanded draconian measures like canceling flights, forcing quarantines and even denying the return of American medical workers who had contracted the disease in Africa…
“Now Mr. Trump confronts another epidemic in the form of the coronavirus, this time at the head of the country’s health care and national security agencies. The illness has infected few people in the United States, but health officials fear it could soon spread more widely. And while Mr. Trump has so far kept his distance from the issue, public health experts worry that his extreme fear of germs, disdain for scientific and bureaucratic expertise and suspicion of foreigners could be a dangerous mix, should he wind up overseeing a severe outbreak at home.”
HE'S GOOD AT BLUSTER AND TEARING DOWN BUT NOT SO GOOD AT BUILDING UP
