If only impeachment meant anything anymore. Seems like a distant, old-fashioned idea. About something else--your response reads well. Always refreshing to see command of the written word. Another reason to enjoy PoliticsNC.

Thank you for bringing attention to an issue that continues to raise concerns about whether impeachment is undermined by partisanship. When a public official enjoys widespread popularity, those tasked with holding them accountable often hesitate, fearing political repercussions and abandoning their responsibility. North Carolina Senator Tillis is a prime example—his deference to Trump’s influence led him to support unqualified nominees.
Historically, impeachment has served as the Constitution’s safeguard, balancing accountability with leadership stability. It was designed to be difficult—but possible—ensuring that removal is reserved for necessary cases while preventing abuse. Trump’s impeachment was justified, yet the GOP’s refusal to act highlights its descent into a self-serving institution, prioritizing wealth for a few individuals. The path forward is clear: voting MAGA politicians out of office is the necessary step toward restoring political integrity. A word that currently does not exist in the Republican Party.
