Mitch McConnell Says He Will Sit Down with Chuck Schumer to Discuss Impeachment Proceedings
GP ^ | 10/22/19 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 10/22/2019 4:27:59 PM PDT by Enlightened1

Pelosi is planning on ramming through an impeachment vote against President Trump by Christmas in the US House of Representatives. They have no crime defined but they are determined to find one in their secret meetings.

The US Senate would then take up the impeachment proceedings.
Tom Fitton says McConnell should reject this coup attempt outright.

 

On Tuesday Mitch McConnell said he will sit down with Senator Schumer and have a conversation on how to handle the proceedings.

Mitch McConnell is against Trump and his voters.

This is a stupid statement by you.

Mitch has to sit down with the minority and map out what will take place in the Senate once the House rams through their BS impeachment.

So what? That’s to be expected.

You are full of shit with your “assessment”.


LOL. He “has” to do it? Would Majority Leader Harry Reid or Schumer sit down with the minority GOP if a GOP House was seditiously assaulting a Democrat POTUS. Not in a million years.

You had best tread carefully, Mitch. If you sell out our duly elected President, you will deal with Deplorables and irredeemables. MAGA or face the repercussions. Your move.

Can we get the Senate to censure McConnell at least?

I think Mcturtle has this right-

Come on over Schumer!- announces this to the press,

Bet Schumer comes out bashing McTurtle and the “process”

All politics and chess- Mcturtle heading off the Dims-

Actually a play from Trumps camp- invite Pelosi and schumer to the whitehouse- they DEMAND NO Audio ! or reporters!!—REMEMBER
WHEN TRUMP WIPED THE FLOOR WITH THOSE 2 Bozos?- put did get a still! of pelosi standing up and pointing and yelling!- (verified by people out of the Room)

Maybe Mctur... McConnell is setting a trap- wonderful picks on the courts — he is Not completely against Trump

my opinion

“Mitch has to sit down with the minority and map out what will take place in the Senate once the House rams through their BS impeachment.”

No, he is the majority leader and he DOES NOT need to sit down and map things out. He can simply specify how it will go. Here’s the beauty of it. If Schumer doesn’t like his plan, his only alternative is a filibuster to shut it down.

The dems have zero power in this instance. It isn’t the Repubs needing to get something they want and needing a 60 vote margin. It is the other way around. The only power the senate minority has is the power to shut it down... which is what WE want anyway.

No need to map it out.

McConnell is already selling out POTUS. The GOP Senate will never remove Trump but want his so wounded he loses at the ballot box in 2020. So they continue to green light the coup.

The GOP as an institution will be held accountable for its role in this coup. Of that I am certain.

Sounds like it’s time for a Trump rally in Kentucky.

He’s going to: 1) tell how to impeach legally, since they’re not following any sort of judicial process. 2) tell them if they don’t follow a judicial process he’ll ignore or reject any impeachment charge they bring.


Then why hasn't he been screaming this from every Sunday talk show in the mainstream media, on every talk radio show, and to anyone who will listen? Where has he been during the secret star chamber show trial that is ongoing? Does Mitch live under a rock?

I’d like to have a little sit down with a few of them. It won’t be tea and crumpets that’s for sure.

MM should say, “We will not participate in any star-chamber kangaroo-impeachment. If the house proceedings are not done in the open, as in the past, we will not consider any house vote valid, and we will ignore it.”

Mitch needs to say that in public, not behind closed doors.

Awl I am sorry stating the obvious got you so upset.

Oh yeah trust “Mitch” after he just betrayed President Trump on Syria and now he is playing the Democrats B.S. impeachment .

Do you really think the Dems would do this if roles were reversed?

Not in a million years.

Let’s face the fact that McConnell is only Majority Leader because he is a weak leader. He gives the mavericks room to roam and they allow him to get the perks of that office.

The McConnell / Chao family is just as corrupt as the Biden family. Uncounted millions in sweatheart ChiCom shipping contracts, etc.

The corruptocrats (D and R) are circling the wagons to deep-six the swamp-drainer-in-chief

it doesn’t seem appropriate for the chief judge on any impeachment charge to be sitting down discussing it in advance with a leader of the prosecution
