Let's all stop acting surprised and blaming Republicans when our Democrats act stupidly. Anyone over the age if thirty who believes the old "just a formality" line from his or her opponents has no business being in politics.

"The House can conduct business so long as it has a quorum — at least 61 lawmakers — present." Those nine Democrats had to know they were giving the Republicans a quorum when they walked into that chamber.

And to all those against impeachment, don't be surprised when Democrats don't take back the presidency or the Senate in 2020.
