For Democrats to win back the White House in 2020, they have to convince blue-collar workers in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania that their platform is worth more than President Trump's pro-worker policies. But with an "impeachment inquiry" sucking up all of the media oxygen, Democrats are having a hard time making their case and voters are already sick of the political posturing.
In Michigan, a usually solid blue state President Trump won by 10,704 votes in 2016, union members are switching their votes from former Vice President Joe Biden back to Trump. The reason? They aren't fans of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's impeachment charade.
Impeachment is ALREADY backfiring on Democrats.

Meanwhile, the Trump campaign is raking in cash and new supporters on the issue.
A BIG thank you to @SpeakerPelosi and the Democrats - in the last 48 hours we have raised $8.5 million dollars in small dollar donations. People are sick of your nonsense but please keep it up — you are handing @realDonaldTrump the win in 2020! ????????

Wow! 50,000 new donors in two days... and growing. @realDonaldTrump supporters are showing up big league.

The RNC is also taking full advantage:
As a reminder, RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel was in charge of the Republican Party in Michigan when Trump sailed to victory in the state.
