A number of sources have reported that Representative Steve Scalise (R-LA) and Republican leader has called for “unity” and “healing” upon the announcement of the Democratic push for another lick of the impeachment cone, since accomplished. For instance, here‘s Yahoo! News:
Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., said that he will not vote to impeach President Donald Trump after the Capitol riot because he believes it will divide the country when it is “calling out for healing.”
Open mouth, insert foot. Push. Push. Push!
Someone should inform the good Representative that healing begins with removal of the entity causing the dysfunction, whether it’s a pathogen, cancerous cells, President Trump, or his enablers in the Senate and House.
Only when he acknowledges that the analogy he calls upon requires the removals I’ve just described can he be taken seriously. In the meantime, he’s just another bloviating Republican hack.
Time for the Senate to step up to its responsibilities!
