IMO, Pelosi will hold the articles back in a gamble that she’ll flip the Senate in November, then, even should DJT prevail, he’ll be tossed out by a Democrat majority.

That indeed may be her thinking.

Flipping the Senate to Dem won’t matter. You need two-thirds, not a majority.

She needs to keep her base motivated to protect the Rat “down ticket” (Meaning keep her Speakership!).
I doubt if it works.

The articles of impeachment are only valid for the current Congress. They would have to start the whole process over again in 2021. Also, they would need more than a majority, they need 67 votes to remove. There is no scenario in which they would get that many votes.

I think even Pelosi is smart enough to know that would be a bad political move.

We know their game plan.
