I’m not sure I agree with that assessment. Time is definitely of the essence. Giuliani is in the Ukraine right now actively undermining the 2020 election.
While I agree that the obstruction charges from the Mueller investigation are just as important as the Ukraine charges, it’s true that the Ukraine charges are much more politically sticky with the public.
Let’s save some charges for after he’s out of office and can be held criminally liable.

“I don’t date anyone who isn’t a dirty commie because politics don’t end at elections and debates, they encompass everything in society including human rights and basic moral values,” says Lace, a 24-year-old from New York, whose view was representative of almost all my sources. “Voting conservative ends with the diabetic patient dying from rationing insulin because government funding for Medicaid was cut again by the conservative majority.” She says she could never date someone “who sees disabled people as unworthy of living or immigrants as less human, and supporting certain political positions means endorsing these fucked-up ways of thinking.”

In other words, the “couple on the political divide” most cherished by the media is comprised of two wealthy, non-marginalized people who treat politics like an allegiance to a certain sports team or an avenue for lively debate across the kitchen counter, rather than a matter of life or death. It’s the illusion of a drastic worldview difference, when in fact “everyone is white and all have the same class interests,” as one of my sources puts it. “The people who say ‘it’s just politics’ are the people for whom bigotry poses no real risk to their jobs, relationships and lives,” says Jon, a 37-year-old bisexual man in New York, “and so they can shrug off these differences as no big deal.”
