“He didn’t mention that the “process arguments” are “constitutional process” arguments. “
Hogwash.
Unmitigated bullsh!t.
This argument on the right that the House is bound to historic procedures is ludicrous, an argument for the ignorant.
Every two years there is another Congress. And every Congress can make their own procedural rules, to include impeachment.
What happens prior to that yes/no vote is immaterial and there is no authority on earth that can compel the House otherwise.
Because she is trying to salvage some of the savable rat seats. She knows it will be a disaster for the rodents; so in the end she will use the excuse she she is even now trying to think up to not do it and save face.
“What is Speaker Nancy Pelosi worried about?”?
Pelosi is afraid to have her members who are in traditionally red districts vote for impeachment as they already are on shakey ground when it comes to their re-elections.
That along with giving republicans some power in the the whole shebang.
we need to notify our representatives that since they are conducting an inquiry without a vote we will assume they voted for the inquiry and remember it at election time..take the offensive..
Our congressional leaders and President Trump should publicize this..imo
no vote = support for impeachment
Can’t the Republicans in the house call for a vote? Seems to me even putting forth a motion to vote on the vote would drive the Democrats into the sunlight and scald ‘em.
Why, is she delaying it? Because she knows it will energize Republicans and most independents and bury the Democratic Party sweeping her out of all the money and power she has as Speaker of the House.
I wonder if Pelosi was just waiting for the DNC presidential debates to end so that none of the candidates would have to comment on the vote. They all seem to be “For” impeachment. But if a vote were actually taken there would be immediate feedback from the public that would only really take shape a couple of weeks later — meanwhile Joe, Kamala, Lizzy & Bernie have all “taken a position” that might be repudiated by the voting public.
