AFRICAN AMERICANS/DEMS/IMPEACHMENT/JUSTICE DEPARTMENT/ROBERT MUELLER/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Moments after the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, wrapped up his appearance at the Justice Department on Wednesday [5-29-19], Representative Dwight Evans stepped out of his district office in a black working-class neighborhood here to visit with local business owners. They had one question on their minds: Why is President Trump still in office? Mr. Evans, a Democrat who began calling for Mr. Trump to be impeached long before Mr. Mueller issued his report, was not surprised: ‘The issue that I hear constantly here is, ‘We sent you for one reason only: to get rid of the president, right? Why haven’t you gotten rid of him yet?’’ In cities around the country, black Democrats like Mr. Evans — and other House members who represent majority-black districts — are hearing much the same from their African-American constituents, as well as from white liberals who have moved into the nation’s urban core.”
