Here is my fear: Democrats in the house spend all their time loudly trying to impeach Trump, investigate Trump, reveal his tax returns, show him to be the racist misogynist pig that he is, etc. All the people who already agree with all of this cheer, the people who don't boo, and everybody digs in. In the meantime, people continue to be hurt by the Trump administration's actions on tax, trade, health, environment, consumer protection, and every other area of policy. Trump spends literally 100% of his time hammering the idea that each and every one of the problems that everyone is experiencing is because of Democratic obstruction in the house. The Dems answer continues to be "he's a racist misogynist pig!" And then we get absolutely slaughtered in 2020.
I'm not sure I have a better plan, and think we're probably all ****ed regardless, but the above is my fear.
