Adam Schiff: Impeachment gamble not worth it without 'very graphic evidence'

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., rushed to the defense of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday, saying only "graphic evidence" would warrant an impeachment gamble against President Trump.

"In the absence of very graphic evidence, it would be difficult to get the support in the Senate needed to make an impeachment successful. Again, my feeling is let's see what Bob Mueller produces. But the evidence would have to be pretty overwhelming," Schiff told CNN.

Across the caucus, Democrats have been asked to comment about Pelosi, D-Calif., abruptly shutting the door on impeachment in an interview published Monday.

There's more criminal evidence on Schitt than he can ever hope to find on President Trump.

For starter's, Schitt gleefully read into the House record on TV, direct quotes from the dirty dossier that was submitted to the FISA court.

Schitt is also the infamous leaker of classified information to the press from several closed door meetings and hearings of the House committee he co-chaired with Nunes.

Schitt is a pathological liar and has been caught in several lies. He needs to be put under oath.

I hope the IG has Schitt under investigation.

His meeting in Colorado with Glen Simpson demands his recusal from the committee he chairs.

Impeachment is going to be left to the new, young, bucks.

AOC and the muslims.

Seems appropriate; Commies and Muslims are who we'll probably have to fight, if we want to hold on to this nation.

"In the absence of very graphic evidence, it would be difficult to get the support in the Senate needed to make an impeachment successful. Again, my feeling is let's see what Bob Mueller produces. But the evidence would have to be pretty overwhelming," Schiff told CNN.

Oh no. If the Mueller report shows nothing, you Democrats own it.

And it's time the gloves come off.

It's a gamble they'd lose big. The Democrats keep losing ground, now the stooges are backpedaling on their impeach sham.

I was thinking that too. someone slipped them a “go ahead and try” note... “This is what Trump has on you personally as of right now. You really want to add more to it for no real reason?”.

Adumb Schitt.

Can’t wait for Schif for Brains to become terribly nervous as our side begins to answer back to the last Two years of false flags, fake news, and relentless vicious attacks, using our Big Guns, > Truth and Justice.

Maybe they’re working on a DeepFake video.

Sch.tfface said he did see the evidence that Russia and Trump worked together, was he lying back then?

[for-q-clinton]

Yep. There is no evidence so instead schiff wants to say there isn’t any graphic evidence to convince the Senate so we can’t impeach. But he promises there is lots of secret evidence he can’t share. So trump will get away with it.

I believe what this low life liberal means is the truth may get in the way and not enough lies can be concocted
