“It's the only way that we're going to get to the facts necessary to have that accountability and justice,” the Democratic 2020 presidential candidate said.

Democratic 2020 presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke called on members of Congress to make the"serious, sober decision" to start impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.

"It's an incredibly serious, sober decision that we should make as a country—really, the last resort when every other option has failed us," he said. "If we do nothing because we are afraid of the polls or the politics or the repercussions in the next election, then we will have set a precedent for this country that, in fact, some people, because of the position of power and public trust that they hold, are above the law," he said.

Asked to respond to Pelosi's concerns at Tuesday's town hall, O'Rourke said he believed lawmakers must"look beyond the politics" and move forward with the impeachment process.

Once again, Beto shows his lack of knowledge concerning impeachment!

Robert should stop thinking anyone cares what he thinks

I decided a long time ago!

He probably shouldn't ever use the word sober.

BetoORourke is a moron of the Nth degree. He should make a serious, sober decision to stand up for America.

Is the circus in town because I see a clown?

Doesn't this guy have a real job? He lost to Ted Cruz ... He's not a real candidate. This is more of an ego run for publicity. We can at least be thankful he isn't continuing his 'music' 'career'.

America is not noted for its serious or sober decisions. That's how we got into this mess. Looking at you Wisconsin.

They did BetoORourke and realDonaldTrump won election2016 in a landslide.

Robbie O’ should make a “serious, sober decision” to have his arms removed, or at least tied down to avoid putting someone’s eye out

10 reasons

Sober as in your drunk hit and run fiasco?

My hope as a conservative, is Democrats spend the next year and half trying to impeach Trump. Then I want them to explain to their constituents, why they didn't work to improve their lives

Followed by drunken celebrations in every major city in America when Trump resigns.

For me the question comes down to whether or not we really believe that we are a nation of law. If we are, and if we wish to remain so, we cannot afford to keep a lawless president in office. To do so risks self-destruction as a nation of any kind.

1000%

'If elected, I will impeach The President' inspires a lot of people. This is disturbing.

Said the liar who changed his name to escape criminal records 😂
