House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is leaving open the possibility of withholding articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump until she is assured a fair trial in the Senate.

“So far we haven’t seen anything that looks fair to us,” Pelosi said Wednesday after her caucus voted to impeach the president. She was referring to what Democratic leadership plans on doing after the vote.

I read about this possibility way back on the 5th. It took me awhile to find my comment, but I finally did:

Narratives like an IMPEACHED President can not be allowed to pick RBG’s replacement.

What's (who is) to stop him?

The more I think about it, the left may want the FISA court removed.

She’ll hold the articles as an excuse to not invite Trump to the House to give SOTU message.

Question..if we take back the House in November(And Trump wins re-election) can this phony impeachment BS be overturned

If they haven't sent it to the Senate, I don't see why the house can't vote to unimpeach. There's nothing that says they can't. They could vote to declare the prior impeachment null and void.

Wait a second!!! I thought Trump was the most serious “existential threat” to the security of this country and we “can’t wait for the next election” because “he’s so dangerous!”

LMAO LMAO LMAO!

Can impeachment be annulled if never consummated?

McConnell should say “Either we have it in 24 hours or it is automatically DOA.”

Shove it up their asses.

And then shove it up their asses again.

McConnel should give Pelosi 24 hours to name case managers or the Senate will summarily dismiss all impeachment articles.

This is so ridiculous. We are dealing with 230 four year olds having a national temper tantrum because they lost an election.

Trump should throw this out:

Nancy? Pelosi?

She’s confusing. She was all for impeachment then she doesn’t send it to the Senate. I don’t understand that. Do you? Do you even understand how she amassed from what I’ve heard is 100’s of millions of dollars while in office? You are the press, maybe you can figure that one out?

She’s known about this 2.5 years ago....this was her next step. She’s the Queen and the media are complicit in promoting this hateful act.

They might. But I really think they were trying to take down Trump instead of the FISA court.

One of the ways to garner support for changing things is to demonstrate how something can be abused by abusing it.
