If the House begins impeachment proceedings, then at some point, they have to impeach him. Which then kicks it to the Senate, where Mitch McConnell gets the bully pulpit.
I think that if the Dems controlled the Senate, then impeachment would be a smart political move, even if they lacked the votes to convict. They could still use the trial in the Senate to expose the President.
But they don't.
So I agree with lungs that it is the "right" thing to do in some moral sense, but it has a lot of political downside for the Dems.
