Matea Gold of the Washington Post covered the launch of the campaign to impeach Donald Trump. Of the campaign, Gold writes:

“The effort to impeach President Donald John Trump is already underway.

At the moment the new commander in chief was sworn in, a campaign to build public support for his impeachment went live at ImpeachDonaldTrumpNow.org, spearheaded by two liberal advocacy groups aiming to lay the groundwork for his eventual ejection from the White House.

The organizers behind the campaign, Free Speech for People and RootsAction, are hinging their case on Trump’s insistence on maintaining ownership of his luxury hotel and golf course business while in office. Ethics experts have warned that his financial holdings could potentially lead to constitutional violations and undermine public faith in his decision-making.”

For me it began on day one after his inagural. When it was shown his VERY FIRST ACT AS POTUS was to try to kill the ETHICS COMMITTEE. Didn't work but I saw where he really stood on day one.
But of course pesky details like mere ETHICS bother you not at all.

Before his inauguration, Donald Trump held a press conference in front of stacks of empty manila folders, pledging to start blatantly violating the law on day one in office and daring anyone to do something about it.

The United States has been in an escalating constitutional crisis since that day.

So, this means we are supposed to look the other way when Donald Trump uses taxpayer resources to bribe another countries President into investigating his political rival and rig a future US election in his favor?? No - No - No! The law is clear. What Donald Trump did is illegal Whodey. It doesn't matter which group was "pushing for impeachment"

Except for the part his base doesn't think he did anything wrong. Of course that is only for REPUBLICAN POTUS. A dem POTUS with the same shenanigans will be ousted in a week. Does the word hypocrite fit here?
