Perhaps most worryingly for Republicans, most Americans don’t think an impeachment inquiry into Biden is warranted right now. A GBAO/Fabrizio, Lee & Associates poll for The Wall Street Journal conducted in late August found that 52 percent of Americans oppose impeaching Biden, and only 41 percent are in favor. More recently, a YouGov poll conducted on September 13 found that 41 percent of Americans oppose impeaching Biden, 44 percent are in support and 15 percent don’t know. In early October 2019, when Trump’s first impeachment was getting underway, Americans were more closely divided, according to our polling tracker. And in the wake of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, majorities of Americans supported Trump’s impeachment; a slim majority of Americans even consistently supported removing Trump from office before the end of his term.

    Being able to act hypocritically, flout the rules and regs, and get away with it is political Viagra to these assholes. It’s what they live for. It’s impossible to “catch them” in flagrant acts of hypocrisy because the act of you noticing them being douchebags but not being able to stop them gives them massive power boners.

      I just like to stay apprised of it so i have ammo in the off-chance that i’m having a civil conversation with someone that somehow doesn’t realize how hypocritical and morally-bankrupt the GOP leaders are.
