Former RNC chairman Michael Steele is the kind of Republican that MSNBC loves. He is more than willing to repeat the latest liberal talking points about President Trump. He continued that tradition on Thursday's MSNBC Live when he endorsed the latest scheme by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Harvard professor Laurence Tribe to refrain from delivering the articles of impeachment to the Senate until Senator Mitch McConnell gives into their demands for witnesses.
Steele completely ignored the language of the Constitution, which plainly states “The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.” They don’t need to negotiate anything with Pelosi. But Steele touted Pelosi as having some “advantage” that she’s holding in her pocket.
Guest-host Chris Jansing began by asking Steele, "If this ends up being Donald Trump and Nancy Pelosi going toe to toe, who’s got the advantage here How do you see this playing out?"
MICHAEL STEELE: I think the wilder card is Nancy Pelosi. She has impeachment that she has placed in front of the country and put on the president's desk. He's got to deal with that reality. The Senate is posturing right now. They don't have the leverage because Nancy Pelosi is not constitutionally, really or regulatorily bound to submit anything on their timetable. They know that. So the rhetoric will be hot and heated. It will have a lot of buzzwords about how weak her case is --

Mike Steele is a disgusting RINO who is irrelevant and stupid. He is totally wrong on this.
Steele? No thanks!
And those are his GOOD qualities.
One of a number of great things about this Presidency is the Uniparty hacks voluntarily revealing themselves.
What a despicable, corrupt creature Steele is. One of the worst of the Bush crew.
“...Former RNC Chair Michael Steele...”
Excellent reason for the word “Former”.....
The Token who FAILED at his job.
Voted for The Muslim Imposter. Twice.
Jumped to the Far Left “News” to grovel for money.
What a Mahrooooon!!!
who next? Paul Ryan telling us it’s over?
And to think I donated $200 to this creep’s senate campaign in 2006. Wish I could get my money back.
Would you consider Steele to be a doosh or a pr!ck? I can’t make up my mind.

Former RNC Chairman Michael Steele won’t back Trump
10/21/2016
Steele said Trump has “captured the racist underbelly, that frustration, that angry underbelly of American life and gave voice to that,” according to BuzzFeed.
“I was damn near puking during the debates,” Steele said.
A Useful Idiot being used by the Evil Idiots. He is clueless.
Zero sum Democrat Nancy Pelosi has all the cards so nobody else has any to play. Seems that is what clown Steele is saying. More proof Steele is RINO, and the Democrats are just plain wrong again.
another Affirmative Action talking head.
Hey, RNC.
Real winner you chose there.
And you wonder why I won’t send you money.
LMAO!
Taqiyya Mike Steele.
Media whore. Lies for money. Blasphemous MSM minion. A shame on his race.
Karma, please visit that man.
