Wallace: Not Voting for Witnesses Amidst ‘Volcanic’ News Cycles Is ‘Political Suicide’
NewsBusters ^ | January 28, 2020 | Curtis Houck

Dispensing more of her supposed invaluable expertise, MSNBC’s Deadline: White House host and Republican-turned-lefty Nicolle Wallace boasted Tuesday about the barrage of anti-Trump breaking news developments (like those about John Bolton) being akin to “volcanic eruptions” and voting against witnesses would be “political suicide.”

Wallace took a stab at the first point during a break in the Senate impeachment trial prior to the final session, referring how there was a “morning news gush — and that's what these are” and “when you wake up to, like, volcano — volcanic eruptions.”

“Today's eruption brought a second excerpt from the Bolton book, about Donald Trump seeking to do favors for autocratic leaders and the John Kelly and all of it ties together and all of it sort undergirds this public pressure. 70 percent of voters want to see and hear from witnesses,” she added.

MSNBC legal analyst and former Obama official Chuck Rosenberg then compared removing a President to another specific power given to Congress in the Constitution: declare war:

(Video at source)

The Constitution reserves to Congress two of the most important decisions in the life of this country: whether to declare war and whether to remove a president from office and those two things are reserved to Congress by the text of the Constitution. A fascinating document. For either of those two things to happen, Do you want more information or less information? Do you declare war with no intelligence or with the best intelligence you can muster?

Frightening, except for a handful of votes in the senate, the Democrats would throw out the legally elected president... just because he beat them in the election.

Amazing. How close to disaster we are in this country.

Democrats are guilty of abuse of power. The globalist thugs are using the impeachment process to score political points in order to manipulate the results of the November 2020 election. These people disgust me.

Yeah..witnesses like Eric Caramiela, the ICIG, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden and Adam Schiff. The only way any poll would be that high (if it's not a fake push poll) is with plenty of Republican as well as Democrat support.
Only a crazy fool like John McCain would have given this deranged woman a position of authority in his presidential campaign. She proceed to fight as hard as she could to make him lose.

He needs a Deep State Mafia name...

How about Chrissy the Sissy...

Seems appropriate

Even allowing my mind to wander with the thought of him dressing in women’s clothes while he is home alone brought forth projectile vomit

Gack!!

Gee, Nicole,

You sure are objective.

Just like you were when you slipped the knife into the back of Sarah Palin.

You’ll get yours one day. I can’t wait.

Where she worked as a 5th columnist in cahoots with the Obama campaign and continued to leak damaging and false reports about Sarah Palin to the media.
See post # 31.

It's political suicide going up against Trump as you'll find out again come November.

Another stupid media stooge pretending to be an expert...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That was why she was hired.
That was her job.
McCain was a willing Designated Loser.
He took a dive.
Just like Romney 4 years later.
We were going to have the Kenyaneisan Usurpation whether we wanted it or not.

Correct! Be the loyal opposition to Dems in 2008 and undercut Conservatives at the same time.
