Impeach Him, Impeach Him, Well Maybe we Hold Off On That – Piece 1: The Vance Problem – Video

Since Trump took office as the 47th, whoopee, all I keep hearing is impeach him, he did this, impeach him, he did that, impeach him. And if I’d been critical while looking through that looking glass into the past, who knows, I might have been one of those saying it too.

So let me start with my confession. I don’t like the man. I didn’t vote for him. Although, in all honesty, I didn’t vote for Harris either. Do I want to see Trump gone? Darn tootin’. So badly that sometimes I gaze with adoring eyes at the liquor store.

Now why tell you that? Because this piece isn’t the one you’re expecting. This one’s about why maybe not impeaching Trump is the smarter chess move. Yes, you heard that right.

=======================================================

And here’s the part that should worry you most if you’re thinking ahead to 2028. Impeach Trump now, and Vance spends two years as the sitting president. incumbent, name recognition, the power of the office behind him going into that election. That’s a much harder man to beat than a former vice president running as a candidate, still needing to win his own party’s nomination, still facing real opposition from inside a party that isn’t even sure what it is by then. MAGA, MAGA 2.0, or Vance quietly rebranding himself as someone who was a Republican all along, working from the inside. Benedict Vance, unless Rubio beats him to it.

You don’t hand him the incumbency for free. You make him earn it.
