Nancy Pelosi, who said impeachment shouldn’t be a partisan stunt, launched a partisan stunt in 2019 by putting in charge Adam Schiff, whom the country knew as a collusion liar. This was a mistake.
Kamala Harris scrapes the larger mystery in her new memoir. Democrats essentially promoted Mr. Trump as a foil. They thought he was their ticket to enact policies Americans otherwise never would support and even most Democrats in office didn’t support, from unenforced borders to extending Joe Biden’s senile incumbency. This was a mistake.
On Aug. 8, 2016, the New York Times made its signal contribution with a front-page directive to the nation’s press to abandon objectivity and adopt an “oppositional” stance toward the GOP nominee. Has an idea ever proved more shortsighted? The spectacle of press lying over the next three years was the single biggest factor in turning Mr. Trump into the political Hercules he’s become.
