There’s no chance that the Senate, with their consistent habit of appeasing Trump, votes to remove him from office, so it sort of feels like wasted effort on the democrats’ part. But at the same time, an impeachment attempt sends a strong message that democrats won’t idly stand by when they see things happen that they think are illegal. So, whether they attempt to impeach him or not, it will feel like a loss. So, yes, they should try to impeach, because having a negative outcome while trying for a positive one is a lot better than having a negative outcome without even trying to improve anything.
