1) Just for everyone's edification, I'm going to go ahead and explain what's about to happen.

The a bill to create a Commission is a special kind of bill in that it doesn't actually need to go to the Senate. It just needs a majority vote in the House. https://twitter.com/ChadPergram/status/1314293596024168448

2) This Commission is basically a group that is empowered to hold hearings and study whatever topic the bill dictates. In this case, 'Presidential capacity to discharge the powers and duties of office'.

Basically, they're going to hold hearings with people who hate Trump.

3) They are then going to use these hearings to generate a report that says that the President is unfit for office.

And this is how the Democrats will be hoisted by their own petard, so to speak.

4) First off, this is a partisan vote along razor thin margins, 36 votes.

Many of the Dems are in Trump districts and will probably lose their seats.

Forcing a vote on this blatantly partisan bill a month before the election is a guarantee that they will lose those seats.

5) The hearings themselves will go down as every other Dem hearing has before. A fucking failure. Every American swing voter who hears about this will understand that this hasn't happened before, and it reinforces the narrative that the Dems will do ANYTHING to stop Trump.

6) THEN, a running theme of these hearings, is that absolutely fucking NOTHING can actually be done with these hearings. There's no subpeona power, no legislative power, the entire point of a commission is to submit a report offering an opinion, that's it.

7) And, icing on the cake: Not one person on the commission nor one likely witness (at best they'll get a former cabinet member/advisor. Unlikely though) will have authority under the 25th amendment to actually fucking follow through on the foregone conclusion of the commission.

8) So what we have is a commission to study something that is none of the House's business, with no authority to actually study the topic, and no ability to compel testimony about the topic, and to dispense with the whole study nonsense because we already know the report's thesis

9) AND IN DOING ALL THAT, the House Dems will FUCK all their swing seats, and demonstrate once again how fucking useless the House under Pelosi is.

Congratulations, Dems.

You played yourselves.

AGAIN.
