What troubled McCarthy’s conscious is that the proceedings will hurt poor Bernie Sanders by removing him from the campaign trail, to the benefit of Joe Biden. The Republican leader proposed, as restitution, that Biden suspend all campaigning until impeachment has concluded.
During the bitter 2016 Democratic primary, many supporters of Bernie Sanders concluded that the Democratic Party had secretly worked to undermine their candidate, in favor of Hillary Clinton. While it was true that Democratic elected officials endorsed Clinton in heavy numbers, it’s not true that they took any concrete steps to tip the scales in her favor. Nonetheless, Republicans worked diligently to fan the flames of their discontent.
Later that summer, WikiLeaks published Democratic emails stolen by Russian hackers. The emails showed members of the Democratic National Committee sympathizing with Clinton’s campaign and anticipating her victory, and even though they didn’t reveal any plot on her behalf, many embittered Sanders supporters took them that way. Trump again drove this message:
It is also clear that Trump and his allies are recycling this message again. “The Democratic National Committee, sometimes referred to as the DNC, is again working its magic in its quest to destroy Crazy Bernie Sanders …,” Trump tweeted last April, “ … for the more traditional, but not very bright, Sleepy Joe Biden.
