Don’t mention impeachment

In Monday’s editorial, the writer salivates at the prospect of a Trump impeachment. Interestingly, the Democratic Party in America have similar fantasies but they daren’t mention them. To do so would be to invite electoral suicide in the November mid-term elections. One is reminded of the Fawlty Towers episode during which Basil desperately tries not to mention the war to his German guests only to end up goose stepping down the middle of the hotel restaurant. If I were a betting man, I would put my money on Maxine Waters giving the game away. What about you?
