          i understand how impeachment works and i understand the congressional math. i disagree w/ the throwaway christman thesis that the US is on some terminal course of constant impeachments: it will be seen, yet again, that the benefits of impeachments redound to the impeachees party; many republicans understand this, but they are unable to discipline the flailing MAGA wing of the party.
