House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries argued on Sunday that his Republicans colleagues are “in the middle of a civil war” over the best way forward amid a newly launched impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, an ongoing spending fight and another looming shutdown of the federal government.
“Civil war has the following attributes: chaos, dysfunction and extremism. The House Republican civil war is hurting hardworking American taxpayers and limiting our ability to be able to solve problems on their behalf,” Jeffries told ABC “This Week” co-anchor Jonathan Karl.
“It’s unfortunate. But as House Democrats, we’re going to continue to try to find common ground with the other side of the aisle,” Jeffries said, adding: “Hopefully the House Republicans will come along so that we can work to make sure we are funding the government.”
It’s revenge and nothing else
I think it’s slightly more than just that. With this inquiry, as bullshit as it is, they can with the next elections tell their base “see? Theyr guy got impeached too!”
It’s a bullshit strategy, but a strategy nonetheless and it’ll work because their base isn’t exactly known for being highly educated or well informed
