What’s the over under on the number of freepers who saw this one coming?
Over and under on how king he lasts as speaker
Anyone looking for a political solution to this (even a Trump victory next year) has no idea of the extent of the corruption.
Saw what coming? He could impeach him for political reasons and not ever get a conviction in the Senate, but as long as he is able to gather new evidence, he hopes to make a strong enough case to convict in the Senate. Good luck with that, however, he can make a strong enough case to convict in the majority of the public..
It is a lot of time and effort only to watch things fizzle and die in the Senate—an utter certainty.
I posted this August 17:
there’s certainly more than enough credible evidence to open impeachment proceedings now. this was true weeks ago.... but pubbies will continue dawdle. they are - as a group - political cowards. it’s mid-August. they will waste a few more months, then after the holidays we will get the ‘we can’t do this in an election year’ excuse. so in all likelihood there will be no impeachment.
and if i’m wrong and they move it along and there is a vote(s) on articles of impeachment, guaranteed there will be a dozen or so RINO-losers that will vote ‘present’ or ‘not-proven (remember that one?)
it will be the end of the republican party as thousands upon thousands of fed-up voters will stay home in disgust.
Insufficient honest Senators. Shutdown coming...
