If McConnell and Repubs are successful in dismissing impeachment charges?

Without any documents or any witnesses?

Should Pelosi begin another impeachment inquiry about whether or not Donald Trump should be impeached again?

Or should the Democrats just forget about impeachment and focus on the next election?

Or should they subpoena these witnesses and take them to Court if they refuse to testify?

Should they keep the heat on these people?

History books will reflect that, and it will also reflect the sham trial by Senate Republicans as well. Therefore for most, t-rump is guilty.

Those history books will reflect not only the sham trial but also the real facts as they come out. (which they will)

In addition, I believe the people are finally seeing through Trump and the GOP and McConnell will lose the Senate in 2020 after his sham trial shenanigans.

If they were to pull such a stunt?

What could Democrats do to make sure they pay a price?

There's no reason why he can't be impeached more than once, and more reasons to do it keep surfacing.

Start an investigation and let it go on until right up to the election. Then send the Articles over to Mitch and the Repubs.

...is to break down all the crimes Ivanka Trump has committed since her father was installed in the White House, and prosecute her for them. And we need to have those prosecutions happen at the state level so DJT can’t pardon her.

Next, we investigate and prosecute everyone covering up Trump’s felonies. Once again, in state court.

Then we GOTV so hard Trump’s Russian friends can’t steal the election.

And once he’s out of office, we offer him A Deal: a pardon in exchange for the surrender of all his real estate and renunciation of his citizenship. Otherwise we prosecute him and give him the same sentence Bernie Madoff got - 150 years no parole.
