Impeachment Confusions

On television Hillary Clinton said yesterday that Congress should “not jump straight to an up-and-down vote on impeachment.” 

Jumping straight to a vote without a careful impeachment committee investigation and deliberation would be idiotic. My guess is that no one in congress is calling for an immediate vote on impeachment. What some may seek is an impeachment committee to look into the matter. 

There are several House committees already doing this without calling themselves impeachment committees. 

tRump violates the law day after day, as if he wants to be impeached. He's forcing the House to act. That might be a strategy (he thinks being impeached is a good campaign issue), but he's not  a strategist. It's probably just his usual temper-tantrum, automatic, out-of-control blustering from behind a wall of bodyguards.
