“When I ask [the Democrats] if they’re willing to step up and take a stand to act publicly, I get a lot of long-winded non-answers,” Steyer stated. “Their message to me and the five and a half million Americans who are demanding Donald Trump’s impeachment is that it’s bad politics. It’s off-message, and it will galvanize the Republicans.”
“So my question for the Democratic establishment is how corrupt is too corrupt for you?” he asked.
Steyer had dedicated $110 million toward building out NextGen America and Need to Impeach, two political organizations engineered to take down Trump. (RELATED: Steyer Is Convinced His $110 Million Trump Impeachment Crusade Won’t Backfire On Dems)
“To you and to me and to millions of Americans this is all pretty obvious. But not a single person in the Senate Democratic caucus has shown the common sense or the sense of right and wrong to support impeachment,” Levin continued.
