If there is one thing that Republicans could depend upon from Democrats they would says that

Democrats will always back down from tough issues. That is the reason why with all the overwhelming evidence in the Mueller Report of obstruction of justice the House Democrats must eventually start impeachment hearing. I realize that 56% of Americans are against impeachment, but the number one job of an elected representative in Congress is to uphold the Constitution. When we start to worry about political consequences before defending our Constitution we are in big trouble.
