Yep. They set a terrible precedent.
nah, this is doa and everyone will re-learn the lesson that impeachment for piddly shit is a self-own.
Any impeachment proceeding is almost sure to pass the House and fail in the Senate.
i understand how impeachment works and i understand the congressional math. i disagree w/ the throwaway christman thesis that the US is on some terminal course of constant impeachments: it will be seen, yet again, that the benefits of impeachments redound to the impeachees party; many republicans understand this, but they are unable to discipline the flailing MAGA wing of the party.

Yup, impeaching a guy for a blowjob was a horrible precedent.
The GOP when they impeached Clinton because Clinton didn't think a BJ counts as sex?
How so?
Watch as every future president gets impeached for some random bullshit
Idk, this feels like a blue slip thing, where dems follow norms from like 40 years ago and republicans just do whatever they like with no opposition
