Democrats Want Their Scalps

The process is the punishment.

Ben Domenech

The built-in post-midterm assumption in Washington has been, and continues to be, that Democrats will try to make Donald Trump – already the leader in the clubhouse – the first president to be thrice impeached. That’s probably a good bet, though as I noted in this week’s District Club, I think they’ll go after a cabinet secretary or two as well. Could be DOGE, could be ICE, could be measles – imagine the scene of RFK Jr. surrounded by a sea of fiery-eyed MAHA moms in the committee room. The party of law, order, and science can find a way to impeach anyone, and will, if only for the sideshow that plays to their base.
