If the Dems take the House and Senate [View all]

I think they should impeach Trump (even though there will not be enough votes in the Senate to convict).
BUT, they should be politically savvy about what the charges should be. There are multiple infractions by Trump, any one would lead to impeachment in a normal America, but they should look at which one would resonate the most with the American people. Not the most egregious or biggest crime, but the one that an impeachment trial would show him in the worst possible way.
Maybe Epstein, maybe treason, maybe gross corruption, but pick the one with the most impact and makes the GOP look terrible defending him.
