Democrats assumed control of the House today with the most diverse Congress in history Freshman Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), pledged, “ We're going to impeach the motherfucker in the White House.” Tlaib isn’t the only one to raise this issue. Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) has already filed articles of impeachment in the House, where a bare majority is required to begin such proceedings. And 11 of 52 newly elected Democrats supported impeachment on the 2018 campaign trail. The vulgar remark immediately laid bare the rift between Democratic leadership under Nancy Pelosi, who view this as premature and politically unwise, and a small number of Congress members and a majority of the Democratic base who want to impeach Trump today. Pelosi commented: “Impeachment is a very divisive approach to take, and we shouldn’t take it without the facts.” Nancy Pelosi swears in Freshman Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib from Michigan There is an untapped market for what Tlaib is selling, and the pressure to move to the left in the 2020 Democratic primary could theoretically tempt more high-profile Democrats to jump on board. They also may grow bolder now that they are unburdened by a looming election. "No one has the right to stand in the way of populist support for Trump-Exit," said one supporter, "Send this piece of crap back to Germany where he came from." To be sure, this is still a push by a very small number of Democrats in the House; while 21 percent of incoming freshmen is significant, it isn’t exactly a chorus. And the fact that Trump is up for reelection next year may temper the perceived need for impeachment (given that Democrats could instead just focus on unseating him). But while Democratic leaders have done a good job propping up a dam against this kind of talk, sometimes dams break. And there’s plenty waiting to gush out from behind this one.
