Democratic Rep. Brenda Lawrence of Michigan now favors censuring President Trump after backing impeachment proceedings over allegations that he withheld military aid from Ukraine for his personal benefit.
Lawrence appeared on the Michigan radio show No BS News Hour with host Charlie LeDuff on Sunday to discuss the impeachment process in the House. Lawrence told LeDuff, to his surprise, that she does not support removing the president from office and that she would ask her caucus to censure him instead.
"We are so close to an election. I will tell you, sitting here knowing how divided this country is, I don't see the value of taking him out of office," Lawrence said. "I do see the value of putting down a marker saying his behavior is not acceptable."
Lawrence represents a heavily Democratic district that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton won with a roughly 60% margin in the 2016 presidential election. The district has not been represented by a Republican since 1948.

Buck = Sch@#$’s meth money supply.
Or Buck = Sch@#$’s meth supply!
*Someone’s gotta run the fam business in CA...
At this point, I would not be surprised to learn Sch@#$ was part owner in a Chinese made “sharp’s business in California, to augment all the drug running he may be running interference for !
This dude(tte) has clearly altered his own genetic code...
“Good to hear. What did he say/do?”
when asked if he supported impeachment, he said he would “have to consult with his constituents and colleagues” to know whether he supported impeachment or not .. now, isn’t that a hellofa way to decide whether a President committed high crimes and misdemeanors worthy of removal from office?
I like your style!
What the demons are doing is totally baseless, obnoxious, and designed to destroy our system! The Dems are proactively bent on a Coup, and anything anti-thetical to the Constitution and division of powers.
Whatever they do to him, our Pres needs to hang it back on their neck, and make a spectacle of it, fully demonstrating their absurdity!
In reality, the bulshevik demon party is the lawless thug party, and has been guilty of everything under the sun for generations!
I am semi-joking here, but it would be fun to watch, (if just to make light of “left wing stupid”), President Trump were to set up an “Executive Panel” (with lawyers), where the actual crimes of the anti-American left were piblically adjudicated, and the panel demanded testimony of DNC staffers, DNC witnesses, leakers, and to see DNC tax returns etc...
Even to the point of finding a willing judge and make it all seem real, and forcing the DNC and Obamanation go to court to stop it all, just as they have done to the Executive Branch!
Hey, I can dream can’t I ...
This whole charade has gone about as badly for the Democrats as they could have imagined.
You’re hysterical!
There is no WIN for the liberals if Trump gets aquitted in the Senate. And Impeachment will cost them seats and since all they care about is power this is the major concern for them...iow, gaining and not losing power.
Hey Brenda.....Trump does not deserve CENSURE, honey.....GROW UP.
She’s from a HEAVY DEM district.
Ruh Roh for dems!
Censure is a cop-out.
Censure, what’s that? A fancy way to say DemocRATs are still whining over the fact that Trump is pushing America first policies rather than the big government totalitarian policies the left prefers?
If they censure Trump they have to censure Biden.
This is the worst news I have read all day.
We NEED a Senate trial.
I say, if they fail to vote for impeachment, the Senate takes it up anyways.
Good idea, except an Obama-appointed Hawaiian Federal Judge would probably block the order.
She's no dummy. She sees it, Peters is loosing ground to John James. Detroiter's are finding jobs like you read about, and I mean entry level trades etc that are the ticket to the middle class. She doesn't want the boat rocked and to have people awaken. Next to her in a neighboring district is Talib, and that carnival, she doesn't want to stir that nest that she already wacked. A lot at risk here, Imagine a young African American out of no where run as a Republican in her district and get President Donald J. Trumps support. That is her worst nightmare....
They don't have to explain it or prove it...All they have to do is say it...The lame street media will do the rest...
Has m0therf@cker Tlaib “backed down” yet? How about $amantha C*** and Big Media?
There just doing the math on who is vulnerable. She hasn’t changed her mind at all.
Can only mean the president is doing well in places unimagined
The Dems’ worst nightmare would be if PDJT is impeached, convicted, removed, runs for president in 2020 and wins in a landslide. :D
Good grief.
Schiff is out of his mind.
No way she is acting on her own here. She was told to go out and start the censure ball rolling! She is a minority dem. Good old stretch sent her on this mission. Bank on it.
Censure for WHAT?
