House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Sunday he believes President Trump will be impeached "at some point" but that Democrats must first build a case for impeachment. Clyburn, the third-ranking Democrat in House leadership, offered the remarks in an interview on "State of the Union with Jake Tapper." When Tapper asked Clyburn if he thought Democrats would launch impeachment proceedings against Trump, he said "yes, that's exactly what I feel."
"What Nancy Pelosi is trying to do, and the rest of us in the House of Representatives, is developing a process to efficiently move on this issue so when we get to the vote, something she calls iron clad I call effective, that is why we are trying to take our time and do this right," Clyburn said.

They less they do, the better for We the People. Trump wins again.
I’m still waiting for a major voice to point out that it is illegal and improper for those in power to harass and pursue someone in the hopes of eventually finding something that they might have done wrong. This is about as unjust as anything.
Not even 25% of Democrat Congressmen want to impeach. This is a make believe tempest created by the media and a handful of lunatics.
Only about 50 House members have publicly stated support for impeachment.
The best thing politically for Trump would be for the democrats to move forward with impeachment because there is NO case. It is one thing to get on MSNBC and CNN and lie and make a big deal out of innuendo, it is another to have to put forth facts supporting the allegation. There are no facts. There was no collusion so there is no underlying crime. The allegations of instruction are ridiculously weak as they rely on “intent” and it is subject to silly interpretation that is similar to what “Comey” claimed he applied to Clinton in the email investigation in his announcement.
Fact - the President and his legal team can mount a defense to impeachment with many inconvenient facts for the democrats.
I hope they do it. I really want Mueller to testify. I want Weismann to testify before congress as well. They do not want to do so because they know what questions will be asked.
Trump and the RNC need to frame the next election clearly -
Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago?
Do you want the border secured and our immigration system fixed?
If so, vote accordingly. The democrats won the majority in the house largely in districts that Trump carried in 2016. It is hard for me to believe those same voters want the dysfunction and obstruction we see now.
Why wait? The case isnt getting any better. Come on dems. You gutless bunch of Cowards.
Do it! Double dare...
STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE-Bill Clinton gets impeached
David Schippers was asked by his friend, Congressman Henry Hyde, to be Chief Investigative Counsel for the US House Judiciary Committee. Schippers, a lifelong Democrat, accepted and took the job in April 1998. The Hyde Committee was holding an inquiry on whether Clinton had committed impeachable offences in his handling of the Paula Jones sexual harassment suit..... during which Clinton committed perjury regarding his affair with Monica Lewinsky. The committee in December 1998 voted to impeach Clinton........a decision supported by Schippers.
On December 10, 1998, Schippers said to the committee:
The President, then,
<><> has lied under oath in a civil deposition,
<><> he lied under oath in a criminal grand jury.
<><> he lied to the people,
<><> he lied to his Cabinet,
<><> he lied to his top aides,
And now hes lied under oath to the Congress of the United States.Theres no one left to lie to.
Upon the passage of H. Res. 611, Clinton was impeached on December 19, 1998, by the House of Representatives on grounds of perjury to a grand jury (by a 228206 vote) and obstruction of justice (by a 221212 vote).
The Senate voted not to remove the impeached president.
==============================
hat tip canuck_conservative
Even make-up couldnt hide that angry red lying face.
The sweaty brow and finger wagging tells us everything
we need to know about the guilt of this scumbag.
=================================
<><> Lewinsky recently came clean; a sitting President, Bill Clinton, suborned perjury from her;
<><> Suborning perjury is an impeachable offense;
<><> another penalty was loss of Clinton's law license.
<><> all of Clintons crimes happened while he was a sitting president:
<><> 47 Oral Office visits from Monica; subornation of perjury, lying under oath, hush money, etc etc etc.
<><> Clinton lied under oath about suborning Monica.
<><> Five charges against him were for obstruction of justice.
<><> Clinton had Lewinsky give Linda Tripp written instructions on how to properly perjure herself in the Willey sex matter.
<><> Bills pal, Vernon Jordan, arranged a $40,000-per-year cushy govt job for Lewinsky;
<><> she got the job after she signed but before she filed a falsified affidavit saying she had NOT had sex with the president.
<><> Clinton's pal, UN Amb Bill Richardson, personally visit Lewinsky at the Watergate to offer her a govt job to shut her up.
Special counsel Robert Muellers report mentions a claim that Russians recorded President Bill Clinton having phone sex with White House intern Monica Lewinsky but the reference was redacted from the version released to the public.
The redaction is likely to anger Republicans, because the allegation has been known since at least 2001 and the Mueller report's reference to a claim that President Trump watched prostitutes urinating in a Moscow hotel room was not struck out.
Clinton allegedly was recorded by Russia in the 1990s, allowing Russia to learn of the affair before American officials. A reference to the Clinton intercept was redacted from the Mueller report to protect personal privacy, but sources told the Washington Examiner that the context makes clear what was blacked out.
Clyburn’s an idiot. He is also my Congressthing only because my house was gerrymandered into his district. Makes it clear that he regards white residents within his district as overprivileged.
17 Months 2 days till election day: took Mueller 2 years to find nothing. Got popcorn...
They figured Clinton's sordid past history would legitimize any fairy tale they could makeup about Trump.
I think eventually the people will remove the Democrat Party!
Possibly best day for Democrats to announce their politically correct impeachment of PDJT is day before election day 2020.
Insights welcome.
Clyborn and “think” should NEVER be in the same sentence!
Article 5. Donald Trump stole FL,NC,PA,OH,MI,IN,WI,IA and the 2nd Congressional District of Maine.
Don’t hold your breath, Jimmy.
Why wait? Get down on it, like your wife on charity donations!
Condensed version:
“Orange man bad, beat her Highness. Destroy!”
Article 5 He’s putting a real crimp on our kickbacks
a spine, and they'd better have their wills all made out.
