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 dont need to negotiate anything with Pelosi. But Steele touted Pelosi as having some advantage that shes 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, whos 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 --

Would you consider him being a Droock?
Yes. Droock is good for Steele.
GWB sure could pick’um
No wonder it sounded like he had never met a GOP voter...he hadn’t.
They were all Swamp Things or Infiltrators.
So when is he declaring his change of party?
The perpetual spoogesocket Steele.
M. Steele knows cards just as well as he knew how to sit in the chair of the RNC. Any one with the name of “Steele” has been shown to be completely clueless, as well as a known liar. How the RNC was saddled with this guy is a complete mystery.
I worked with Steele when he was the chairman Prince George’s county Maryland Republican Central Committee.
He was very different back then. He started to go the dark side when he became Lt. Governor
LOL! He’s bi.
So, power can corrupt some folks.
Affirmative Action hires seldom work out very well (unless you set the bar low to begin with).
He’s an embarrassment.
“Michael Steele wasnt a douche while Lt. Gov. of Maryland. Perhaps Gov. Bob Ehrlich held him in check.”
Disagree. That’s when he started to change. Ehrlich didn’t have enough grey cells upstairs to do anything. Met Marc a couple times when he was Gov. Not impressed.
As I said 15 years ago, Steele was, and still is, a total flaming asshole.
Maybe they can sober up John Boehner for a couple of hours.
+200000! I met him once before and liked him early on. What a weasel he turned out to be.
lol perhaps- isn’t he into pot sales these days though?
That’s what Rhino’s do....they play in whatever court is going to have the biggst payoff for them personally in the long run.
