said, "Dems will never vote on impeaching Trump."

Agreed. As crazy as many of them seem. There is about 1/3 of the democrats that know this is a mistake.

...even before their planned hearings or formal investigation...

Then have at it. Put your names on it. And see what happens.

They're scouring the polls until their eyes bleed to see if they can get away with it. This last media campaign hasn't moved the ticker much as far as public information shows, and the media are doing their best to shift it, but heaven only knows what the internal polls are telling them. If I had to guess, though, the word "re-election" figures large.

if they take the vote, the GOP gets subpoena power to at least partially balance the record.

Are you sure? What if they just vote without an official investigation? Is there really anything keeping them from changing the rules specifically to get President Trump.

Of course, in that case the senate could probably refuse to recognize it. But would they have the guts to do so? Or would they feel compelled to follow their own rules in order to maintain their dignity?

When the bill is raised the minority party will get to call witnesses

What makes you think they will follow normal protocol?

Anything these lyin’ Democrats do today was planned, and choreographed as much as six months ago. This is BS.

The Dems have made the impeachment process, as they define it, just an extension of the election. If the vote doesn’t turn out the way they want, they continue counting. If that doesn’t work, they to trying to overthrow the choice of the electorate. I wonder how many of them have thought about the fiery pit they are going to open under themselves and the country?

That’s not the big hurdle. Evidence and charges are the hurdle. Butt hurt is not a chargeable offense.

”But, if they take the vote, the GOP gets subpoena power to at least partially balance the record.”

I don’t think you understand what’s happening.

The House is going to vote without hearings and without debate.

The Senate is going to have a five minute trial presided over by CJ Roberts who is not going to allow objections.

Ok, you got me. I’m not sure of anything any more.

But, Trump’s position has been that if the Dems want subpoenas to be honored, GOP requests for subpoenas will have to be honored too.

Could they vote, and change the rules? Sure, but it would look bad.

...internal polls...

Trump demanded they vote. He’s holding a rally in Minneapolis.

Our side has internal polls, too.
