Nadler: You can't impeach president if voters won't support it
The Hill ^ | 31-05-19 | TAL AXELROD

Posted on 05/31/2019 12:14:10 PM PDT by McQ444

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) said Friday there is justification to begin impeachment proceedings against President Trump but added that public support must be behind the move before hearings begin.

“Impeachment is a political act, and you cannot impeach a president if the American people will not support it,” Nadler told WNYC. “The American people right now do not support it because they do not know the story. They don’t know the facts. We have to get the facts out. We have to hold a series of hearings, we have to hold the investigations.”

Nadler said that he hopes to bring special counsel Robert Mueller’s report “to life” by having him testify and provide some of his underlying evidence in front of a televised audience. He said such a hearing could help clarify questions about the president’s conduct that were featured in the special counsel’s final report.

Bingo we have a winner! Mueller did the Democrats no favor with his dopey retirement statement.

Which BTW Mueller and DOJ jointly “clarified” so as to render the statement meaningless.

Hey Nads: Heads up. Mueller said Wednesday he would NOT be doing what you have in mind.

Just like the fifth or sixth re-introduction of Hillary Clinton because “voters haven’t gotten to know the real Hillary yet.”

Sure you can!

My first thought, too! Nothing in the Constitution prevents impeachment if "the voters won't support it."

What he's really saying, of course, is "OMG, Trump hit a new high in popularity today!"

“Looks like that stroke No nads Nadler had the other day actually IMPROVED his brain.”

Fat “No Nads” Nadler hasn’t seen his own nads in decades. The fat phuk probably can’t even reach them so he probably has to sit to piss.

It’s a shame, but President Trump will have to wait til AFTER his inauguration, to really lower the boom. I expect, for one thing, a whole lotta pardons! If they want to spend (waste) their time trying to impeach, good luck. Of course, they are going to try to take back the Senate, most likely with voted fraud. Pray without ceasing!

Jerry, you fading nettle (prick), you’re gonna die. And when you do, even satan won’t want a lying, two-faced, hate filled dead soul like you around in Hell.

Of course, Mule’sRear knows that once his vindictive parting shot was out there, a certain number of people aren’t going to hear anything else. Probably the same number who wouldn’t believe it if he had told the truth....”innocent til proven guilty; but we couldn’t prove guilt. “

Even if they would go for impeachment, I think they would wait at least another 5-6 months before getting underway, so they can time it for their maximum benefit in the 2020 elections.

And it’s obvious by what the AG said, this dog won’t hunt, no matter how many hunks of raw meat you tie around those rabbits necks. It’s DONE. He’s had his ears boxed, and knocked down by Barr several times, now. I think he’ll stay down, this time.

So, Jabba the Gut...not much for actually sticking to your principles, eh?

Go home. You are unfit to serve in ANY elected office.
