‘Look, Is That Trump Committing An Impeachable Offense?’ Mitch McConnell Says, Distracting Dems While More Conservative Judges Sneak By

The previous 3 impeachment attempts alleged actual crimes and presented them and the facts they had available to the Senate. This time there are no crimes and no facts other than Trump is bad and damages their feelings.
Nancy lied, leftists cried. #TrumpIsStillYourPresident
Illegitimate Impeachment
Pelosi/etc.. should be the ones being Impeached for their criminal negligence (and worse)
Well written. Clever analysis.
I would disagree with Mark on this one. The House has sole power of impeachment, until it sends Articles of Impeachment to the Senate, they can do whatever they want under their own House rules. The Senate has zero say over impeachment (until or unless the articles are filed). (It’s also not a formal impeachment unless the articles are filed.)
The constitution does not speak on the “filing” of articles of impeachment, so you are merely expressing your opinion of the issue, and may or may not be correct.
That is an interesting take on it.
Thank you for that.
Now I feel better about the whole shebang.
I would just like to see her go to the plastic surgeon Joan Rivers had!
(RIP, Joan.. You would’ve made up a great routine about Pelosi.)
Free helicopter rides for the hard-core Resistance.
It'll be a real treat!
What’s the goal here, Nance? Keep those impeachments on ice until the 2020 election when the Senate might flip D? Then behold, a trial! And the D’s would control the process (surprise votes without R’s present, anonymous ballot votes, ahoy!).
She’s being silly, demanding the Senate make rules for something that she hasn’t even sent to them for evaluation.
‘Ditsy’ is the word, isn’t it?
Did you watch and listen to McConnell’s speech this morning? It was a great speech
Pelosi is a disaster and needs to be impeached for not doing the speaker’s job.
I agree with you SunStar. And like I said above, Pelosi can insist until she is blue in the face that the Senate make the rules before they send the articles, but McConnell doesn’t have to do anything until the articles are delivered.
Maybe the Democrats want to sit on them a while to keep the spotlight on themselves. They have been in attack mode for 3 years and this is more or less their last shot. What are they going to do next to keep the masses agitated? What more can they do to damage Trump? They went down this road, and now they don’t want the spotlight to turn on over Trump and the GOP Senate where it is pretty much a political imperative that Trump and the GOP begin to “rehabilitate their image” so to speak and return fire on the Democrats. They don’t want to give up control.
Perhaps ditsy. She think she’s being deft but is really just daft.
then this “impeachment” remains little more than an “inquiry”. This is basically
like the tree falling in the forest
Pelosi says she may hold up the Impeachment trial process in order to wring certain concessions from the Republicans. Pardon me, but isn’t that quid pro quo? When does Nancy’s impeachment begin? I believe she is demanding a quid pro quo, which is an obstruction of justice and a misuse of her office. Does any of this sound familiar?
