Pelosi says impeachment ‘not a priority’ after Cohen's guilty plea
The Hill ^ | 8/22/18 | EMILY BIRNBAUM

Posted on 08/22/2018 5:12:02 PM PDT by Libloather

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday said impeaching President Trump is "not a priority," despite Michael Cohen's guilty plea to campaign finance violations that implicated the president.

"Impeachment has to spring from something else," Pelosi, who has long downplayed the possibility of impeachment, told The Associated Press.

**SNIP**

"If and when the information emerges about that, we'll see," Pelosi said. "It's not a priority on the agenda going forward unless something else comes forward."

Because this is an orchestrated coup by the deep-state, the fakestream media, dems, and the rinos & neverTrumpers that make up the GOP. That's why we have all these indictments against Trump 'associates' and none against the corrupt state--

They are going to force conflict. They will blame Russia again when they lose. Everybody here should make their preperations.

“Trump is no more impeachable than Obama was. His die-hard base is too big.”

The TPTB obviously don’t fear the deplorables. Trump has the entire corrupt state, corrupt courts, both parties and fakestream media against him. Obola didn’t. They cheered and championed him.

When Mueller presents his impeachment report to congress if you think the media is bad today, they’ll go to defcon1 hysterical levels until Trump is impeached and removed from office.

She must think it’s a trap. If they attack Trump on this, Hillary did much worse funding the Dossier with campaign money, I doubt Trump’s campaign paid Stormy’s ransom. + They all do this, they had a slush fund with tax dollars just for this exact same thing. Do they really want to start that fight? Somehow I think Trump will come out on top like he always does.

Not only will they, I claim they SHOULD, or they would be disregarding the “will of the people” that elected them...

If you think PT will just leave, you are wrong. He will go over my dead body.

Conflict is unfortunately inevitable at this point. The Left won't stop. We would have to beat them every time, in every election. We are going to have a war.

I hope not but the swamp is determined to remove him. It’s disgusting what’s going on in D.C.

Yup. The brainwashed left are out of control. The swamp is out of control.

That’s the date the form was revised, no?

As an attorney who works on many legal documents, I can tell you that those revision dates are often incorrect.

Pelosi reminds me of the old lady in an Alzheimer’s meds commercial who misplaced her keys in the fridge...

As Trump changes history, the "stain" of impeachment wouldn't bother him at all. He'd turn it into a positive, and wear it proudly.

He'd be justified in doing so, as opposed to Clinton.

There is an extremely low chance R's lose the House, however, so this is all fantasy. I expect gains. And then lots of heads roll in the Justice Dept., and State.
