Nanzi does not have 217 votes and she knows it.😆

I “think” that vote was to look into impeachment not saying that impeachment should take place.

Just to sooth their radical wing and their loony followers and donors.

House Minority Whip Kevin McCarthy should lead a GOP effort to force an official floor vote authorizing Articles of Impeachment. Get Dems on record, even if Nancy P. won’t call for an official roll call herself.

Tariffs have handcuffed China, and China wants the cuffs off. Using this flimsy impeachment mania as an excuse not to deal with the U.S. hurts only China, since Trump would keep the tariffs in place - if not increase the percent and add tariffs to other categories of goods.

A Republican should introduce the motion, and vote against it if a roll call vote is held.

Bill Clinton survived impeachment, even w/ a suck-up media, and femiNazis Live-To-Regret defense: "it's only sex".......
Clinton fought back tooth-and-nail, focusing on a booming economy, not that he was facing disbarment;

An arch miscreant and liar left office with stellar popularity and a plan to exploit the presidency he demeaned.
That suggests "the people" apparently liked the idea he fought back against the impeachment-mongers in the House.

=========================================

STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE-—Bill Clinton gets impeached

David Schippers was asked by his friend, Congressman Henry Hyde, to be Chief Investigative Counsel for the US House Judiciary Committee. Schippers, a lifelong Democrat, accepted and took the job in April 1998. The Hyde Committee was holding an inquiry on whether Clinton had committed impeachable offences in his handling of the Paula Jones sexual harassment suit..... during which Clinton committed perjury regarding his affair with Monica Lewinsky. The committee in December 1998 voted to impeach Clinton........a decision supported by Schippers.

On December 10, 1998, Schippers said to the committee:
“The President, then,
<><> has lied under oath in a civil deposition,
<><> he lied under oath in a criminal grand jury.
<><> he lied to the people,
<><> he lied to his Cabinet,
<><> he lied to his top aides,
<><> he lied under oath to the Congress of the United States.
"There’s no one left to lie to.”

Upon the passage of H. Res. 611, Clinton was impeached on December 19, 1998, by the House of Representatives on grounds of perjury to a grand jury (by a 228–206 vote) and obstruction of justice (by a 221–212 vote).

The Senate voted not to remove the impeached president.

=================================

<><> Lewinsky recently came clean; a sitting President, Bill Clinton, suborned perjury from her;
<><> Suborning perjury is an impeachable offense;
<><> another penalty was loss of Clinton's law license.
<><> all of Clinton’s crimes happened while he was a sitting president:
<><> 47 Oral Office visits from Monica; subornation of perjury, lying under oath, hush money, etc etc etc.
<><> Clinton lied under oath about suborning Monica.
<><> Five charges against him were for obstruction of justice.
<><> Clinton had Lewinsky give Linda Tripp written instructions on how to properly perjure herself in the Willey sex matter.
<><> Bill’s pal, Vernon Jordan, arranged a $40,000-per-year cushy govt job for Lewinsky;
<><> she got the job after she signed but before she filed a falsified affidavit saying she had NOT had sex with the president.
<><> Clinton's pal, UN Amb Bill Richardson, personally visit Lewinsky at the Watergate to offer her a govt job to shut her up.
<><> Mueller's report contains the claim that Russia taped Bill Clinton's phone sex with Monica Lewinsky

Machiavellian Pelosi's "impeachment" is a set-up, to challenge Trump’s authority to nominate RBG's replacement
The “now-official inquiry" gives rabid blood-thirsty abortion worshippers time to gin up a popular argument til RBG croaks.

Hopefully the frantic “Squad” and the other radical leftists will force Pelosi to call for a vote to force
Democrats to commit to impeachment in a bloodless death pact. That will tie each and every Democrat
to "impeachment"....then having to face the American voters in 2020.

I like it....kinda like when all the Dems blithely sailed on Obama's ACA Death Ship.....some 32 were "lost as sea" (at election time).

Yet another DeathShip: the Big Kavanaugh lie, which they are trying to bring back to life :-)
