The US House of Represetatives works in “approximately” the same fashion as a DISTRICT ATTORNEY who must determine whether to charge or not charge someone - and then must “present the case” to a jury who then VOTES for conviction or not.
One of the functions this attorney does is to make an evaluation as to whether this case has a chance of “winning” - in terms of getting a conviction. Many times a decision will be made to NOT CHARGE someone because it’s basically NOT WINNABLE before a jury. He doesn’t want to waste the taxpayer’s money on a unwinnable case.
If it’s a toss-up and he thinks he can “make the case”, he’ll proceed. But if he knows that there’s no way he’s going to get a conviction, then he won’t. That’s also why some cases are dropped after hung juries. It’s a waste of resources to proceed.
As it stands right now, this is a a TOTALLY UNWINNABLE CASE with the “jury” of the US Senate!
were you confused when I said I don’t care what the senate does. It is up to the house to do it’s duty.
