Since the beginning of the Trump presidency, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been fending off calls to impeach Trump. The clamor started on the left fringe and quickly worked its way toward her inner circle, with committee chairs and her close friends in the conference publicly embracing impeachment in increasing numbers following the 2018 midterm.
On top of the dam breaking in Pelosi’s conference, clear majorities of Democratic voters have favored impeaching Trump for two years, even as clear majorities of the broader electorate did not. 
The intensity of partisan Democratic opinion has been magnified by the presidential primary, with numerous candidates  most notably Elizabeth Warren  loudly banging the impeachment drum, and attracting large crowds in the process. 
This is about the coming election. How to move the pendulum to the Democratic side. It is the power in money, taxation, influence and avoid being run over by Trump's economics.

Just a thought.
