One could also argue that impeachment was for a time when the President was elected not by indirect vote of the people, but by the state legislators assigning electors. Because of this it would make sense that the Senate as representatives of the states would be the ones to decide the ultimate fate of the President. Today with direct election of Senators a recall effort that would require 66% of the electors voting for impeachment via the same method as a general election should be required.
Start the case without the Democrats. Until Nancy hands it over, use the Senate floor in your favor
Maybe she’ll have a brain lock up and we’ll be spared her slobbering drivel..
Cometh the hour cometh the man.
And later, perhaps in the Senate Judiciary Committee, there’ll be time set aside for the POTUS to present his side of the story with witnesses, including several from the Ukraine, testifying under oath with opportunity for cross-examination. Schiff and Nadler will look like two cents, along with the rest of the Dems. Let the MSM spin it as they please. They have less and less credibility to the more they attack.
The demonrats in the House want to delay sending the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate because they believe they will tip the Senate in their favor come November. The House will then send the Articles to the Senate, to which the demoncrats believe they will control, and then put on a raux trial to remove Trump at the start of his second term. I believe this is their strategy for 2 reasons 1) most everyone who is not a demonrat says Trump is going to win the next election as if it is already a done deal and 2) this is more of a payback for when the Senate held up the SCOTUS nomination until after the election in 2016. Believing they can flip the Senate is what they are putting all of their cards on. Remember Trump touted he gained seats in the Senate. Look closely at the Senate races this coming election. The demonrats will pull some devious ballot switching. Almost a reason for the ballot boxes to be watched and the digital tabulations to be even closely monitored than before. Soros has his dirty and blood-stained hands into this impeachment that you can be certain of that.
The stage is already set for trickery to occur so the demonrats will get the House, Senate, and Presidency and if they can’t get the WH, you can bet they will impeach Trump again and if they control the Senate and House, then he will be removed. Whoever is Trump’s running mate will also be impeached shortly thereafter. The election for President is important but what is equally important is flipping the House and retaining or acquiring an even larger majority in the Senate.
1218 - NEVER FORGET
Amen
We pray for Senator McConnell to be very wise. We pray for support from the other Senators. We pray that the Senate will reverse the abuse of power inflicted by the House. We pray for our duly elected and beloved President Trump.
The impeachment TV ratings must be very low...
Whoopie.
When do the NE Patriots get impeached?
Acknowledge it, do opening arguments, then vote. Close the book.
Bttt
This was a great speech only marred by his decision not to say therefore we will take a boat right now to reject acceptance of these articles
Good speech, but I could only listen for so long.
Congress needs a better dental plan.
Or, these old fogeys need to let some younger folks speak.
