Punchbowl News: “Let’s put this in perspective because it’s easy to just gloss over — the former president and GOP frontrunner for the 2024 nomination is calling for the impeachment of the sitting president and threatening rank-and-file Republicans who don’t support this effort. It comes as Trump could be indicted for his role in the Jan. 6 insurrection, during which he tried to overturn his loss in the 2020 election to Biden. Got it?”
“McCarthy and the House GOP leadership have tried to walk a very narrow line on this, but Trump seems determined to force them into action.”
“Having Trump threaten his 2024 vulnerables — who aren’t rushing to sign onto any impeachment push — is potentially disastrous for McCarthy and the Republican leadership.”
