ALSO OF INTEREST -— Adam Schiff: Case against Trump ‘cannot be decided at the ballot box’


House Judiciary Chairman Adam Schiff said that President Trump’s alleged misconduct can’t be proven at the ballot box but only through his impeachment. The California Democrat is one of the House’s impeachment managers and made the remarks during his opening statement on Wednesday.

“If not remedied by his conviction in the Senate and removal from office, President Trump’s abuse of his office and obstruction of Congress will permanently alter the balance of power among the branches of government,” the 59-year-old congressman said.

Schiff accused Trump of attempting to “use the powers of the presidency to cheat in an election.”

“For precisely this reason, the president’s misconduct cannot be decided at the ballot box, for we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won,” he said. “The president has shown he believes he is above the law and scornful of constraint,” Schiff added.

At around the 30 minute mark she explains new information on “email exchanges from State Department officials that could drastically ALTER THE COURSE of President Trump’s impeachment … they involve the Obama administration, he potential whistleblower, and Hunter Biden’s shady Burisma arrangement.”

Schiff has to be removed from office. He is obviously unhinged.

:: for we cannot be assured that the vote will be fairly won,” he said ::

There it is! Dems want to create doubt and destroy confidence in our elections. Started in 2000.

Even if HRC had won [shudder] in 2016, enough shade would have been thrown at the elections such that her “re-election” [shudder] in 2020 would have allowed the DS to delay Federal elections in 2022 in order to ^FIX^ them. Can you say HRC, POTUS [shudder] until her death in office?

[They] are still following this scheme only with Trump in office. They can’t change the BIG CONCEPT because Trump is in office. [They] just need to tweak the details.

Remember always, they accuse us of the wrongdoing that they are involved in. They just told us that they are planning massive voter fraud.
