Ryan (Romney) only needs 25 Republican votes to send Articles to the Senate. Why do you suppose Mueller keeps begging to be fired?
It's a very, very high-stakes poker game. If Ryan moves too soon and without a proper fig leaf to cover his 25 traitors, he won't have the votes. If he waits until November 2018 is on people's radar, he also won't have the votes.
Ryan (Romney) and McConnell (Bush) know Trump is impulsive and that he does not have the very thick skin typical of a politician. They keep poking and poking, hoping for a blowup that will get those 25 Republicans in the House to sign on to removal (I'm sure there are 80 votes in the Senate to convict right now).
Yet, for a guy without “thick skin” Trump has deftly managed all these idiots.
Always underestimated.
Ru Paul’s window closed two months ago. There is no impeachment. The Rs all see they are almost ALL doomed to be kicked out if they don’t play ball, and quick.
