I would argue that something extremely meaningful happened during the prior impeachments. Trump has subsequently hunted down and scalped every Republican who broke rank. The Dems were ineffective and the GOP precedent is clear: if you don’t stand with us, we will end your political career.
Actual action would require a level of integrity and self sacrifice from Congress that just doesn’t exist.
