Impeachment Isn’t Merited
President Trump is a bull in a china shop. He says inadvisable things to inadvisable people, mainly because he is inadvisable — literally no one can advise him. The vast majority of things Trump says are ignored or brushed off by those who understand the difference between bloviation and manipulation.

The sharp contrast was also demonstrated during the 2004 presidential…
