On Tuesday, Jim Johnson unveiled his “Trump Protection Plan,” a five-point agenda to defend New Jersey from President Trump and his administration. He called for a special prosecutor and independent commission should be established immediately to find out the truth in a way that would ensure public trust. And If the findings are such that President Trump obstructed justice, Congress must begin impeachment proceedings.

Jim Johnson, a former Clinton administration official running on the left in the New Jersey primary, similarly invoked Watergate. “If the findings are such that President Trump obstructed justice, Congress must begin impeachment proceedings,” Mr. Johnson said in a statement.
For the most part, more establishment-aligned Democratic candidates declined to go that far. In New Jersey, for instance, Mr. Johnson’s chief Democratic opponent, Phil Murphy, a former ambassador to Germany, stopped at the appointment of a special prosecutor.
