For months, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi warned itchy Democrats against the perils of impeachment. She should have stuck to her guns.
In surrendering to the radicals and the noisy drumbeat of their media handmaidens, Pelosi established a formal investigative process involving the top legislative committees.
Yet she did something else, too, something far more monumental: She effectively committed House Dems to impeaching President Trump.
Because of what she said and did, if the House doesn’t go all the way, it will be a political disaster. Either failing to take a vote on articles of impeachment, or failing to get enough votes among her majority to pass any articles, would be seen as a political exoneration for Trump, likely leading to his re-election.
If all that weren’t risky enough, consider another scenario. If House Dems do impeach Trump on grounds that much of the public sees as flimsy and concocted, they could win the battle and lose the war. Indeed, no matter what the House does, there is a next-to-zero chance the GOP controlled Senate would convict the president absent clear and convincing “high crimes and misdemeanors.”
Pelosi knew all that since January, when she became Speaker, which is why she kept resisting the impeachers. But her surrender proved again that her party can’t quit 2016. Like generals fighting the last war, she and they are now committed to taking their sore-loser grievances to 2020 voters.

Notice how the term “Constitutional Crisis” has not been mentioned by anyone?
EXACTLY SO & “Nanny” Pelosi KNOWS that an impeachment vote will cost the DIMocRATS the HoR in 2020, as well as reelecting DJT.
The DIMs are mostly so consumed by PREJUDICE, BIGOTRY & unreasoning HATE that they all have TDS. = Hopefully, it will DESTROY the DP, too by 2024.

In all my adult life I cannot recall the rat party being so openly hateful and vile. The rats are becoming dangerous. No, strike that. They are dangerous.
Just yesterday making small talk, I was shoved and told to shut up about crooked Hillary. Then I mentioned Beto, and things became very interesting very quick.
Every day my grocery store has more and more cars with California plates. Employees can’t speak English.
Timing it so that the election falls between impeachment and trial. The execrable Democrats know they can’t win in the Senate. But this way they can raise another crisis as to whether Mr Trump is eligible to run while impeached.
As I have said since the Democrats won the House in 2018, he/she who controls the Executive, the Senate & the Judicial controls the universe!!! Pelosi was and is too dumb to understand this. Not only has Pelosi last evening handed a major, massive landslide POTUS re-election victory to POTUS Donald J. Trump....but she has killed off the moderates and blue dog Democrats in one fell swoop. Both Pelosi and Schumer have killed the Democrat Party politically!!! I warned the moderates and blue dogs to save their skins by jumping ship and turning to become GOP immediately...but the idiots went right down the tube with the nutcase Pelosi...SAD!!!
As for Biden.....whose that once again? And...also...who are those Democrat Party 2020 candidates, again? Game over for all Democrats!!!
Check out this gif of Chris Hayes interviewing a guest this evening. It is not faked =>

WARNING! Cover your keyboard before viewing the gif.
I'm gonna do some googling.
Let's also agree that Nadler was a clown out of costume.
".....But her surrender proved again that her party can’t quit 2016. Like generals fighting the last war, she and they are now committed to taking their sore-loser grievances to 2020 voters.
Dems apparently assume the country hates Trump as much as they do. President Hillary Clinton had no comment on the strategy.
They also are demonstrating they didn’t learn the lessons of the Robert Mueller probe. They assumed for two years the special counsel would get the goods that would drive Trump from office. We know how that worked out, yet here they go again......"
Also, the Clintons are still trying to get even for Monica Lewinsky. They don’t have Gingrich or Bush to go after anymore, so Trump will do.
I fear that we are headed for a guerrilla war WHEN (rather than IF) DJT wins reelection & the HoR is back in GOP hands.
PREPARE for urban warfare as the DIMs are DANGEROUS for sure.
(As I’ve said elsewhere, I’m NOT going out looking for trouble BUT we are ready for home defense, in the event that trouble comes looking for us.)
I keep a pump-shotgun loaded with #4 buck & my EDC loaded with 9 rounds of JHP too.

They are more interested in power than fixing America, but will the American sycophant idiots voting like they root for a NFL team realize that?
Perhaps Nancy is throwing the radical sect in Congress under the bus. She has only stuck her toe in the water here and it’s apparent she sees this going nowhere good. She may be thinking the long game here within her own party.
Just something to consider.
I responded last time.
Tell me how. :)
That letter SHOULD be put on EVERY THREAD about this!
I use the book “Who’s Who in America” find all the Republicans and Independents, look up their phone numbers, call them and ask them for a donation.
I don’t but men like you need to be there.
There’s gotta be a conservative somewhere with a wheelchair van!
We lack experienced people.
We lack any military or high end political knowledge.
We lack what you know and I’m always dying for you to go into more detail about what you can because it sounds like you had an AMAZING career.
Thanks for the link!
Menendez, Durbin, and Leahy...
