🇺🇸 Democrat Rep. Jason Crow is treating the Hegseth impeachment push as leverage, but the dynamic may favor the Trump team instead.
“I would love to end the impeachment proceedings. Just fire Pete Hegseth.”
Crow said that removing Hegseth would be the course correction millions of Americans want and help end the war.
But past Trump impeachments became political ammunition for him after failing.
The same dynamic could allow Hegseth and the White House to frame this effort as Democratic overreach rather than a successful demand.
The blue wave is one thing. If Democrats keep pressing the same hard line, they could hand the administration a clear case to win those voters back.
