WASHINGTON The White House argued Sunday that Speaker Nancy Pelosi has put herself in an untenable position by stalling House-passed articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump in hopes of shaping the upcoming Senate trial.
**SNIP**
She will yield. Theres no way she can hold this position, said Marc Short, the chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence. We think her case is going nowhere."
**SNIP**
Short called Pelosis delay unacceptable, saying shes trampling Trumps rights to rush this through, and now were going to hold it up to demand a longer process in the Senate with more witnesses.
If her case is so air-tight ... why does she need more witnesses to make her case?" Short said.
White House officials have highlighted Democrats arguments that removing Trump was an urgent matter before the House impeachment vote, as they seek to put pressure on Pelosi to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate.

Holding for promised dirt.
If she can’t hold then the claim they can impeach over and over goes into effect when they get the dirt.
There is a promise of dirt she believes will force the senate to convict.
I’m looking at that new memo that came out saying hold the aid (90 minutes after the phone call) ...and wondering why it is/was not classified? Starting to think it’s a plant because I think we know the aid was on hold a month earlier.
Send Nancy back to her wine cave.
Waiting for Schiff to make up something on Pence. Found out the House also has to stay in session. Figures the Senate will not act first. Wants to drag it out in the media as long as possible. I suspect at least one of these is true.
The longer they drag it out the better the case for the president.
When the aid was held up doesn’t. Matter because it is perfectly legal for the president to do so.
Anyone who actually. Believes foreign is handed out without conditions has not been paying attention.
The stupid part of the Dems dialogue is that we were looking for any additional "corruption" information relative to what we had....
and The call is very clear....we already had the goods on Biden...we didn't need anything else.
The Dems are trying very hard to damage our relationship with Ukraine.
But my gut tells me they are using reverse physchology....and in fact they don't want those people called....because they DO NOT what they will produce.
All the witnesses they called were totally under their control and noticeably anti-Trump.
One thing that gets me....is that these ambassadors think that they are the ones who actually dictate policy.
She wants Trump to stew over it over the holidays and force McConnell to allow witnesses.
Constitutional ABUSE OF POWER! That is the only thing that should be communicated about this sham. Not bullying or any other stupid meaningless words. Hammer down and focus on THEIR abuse of power. Dont ever leave that message and stick with it until the end of time. Their historical move in the House will live in infamy!
They THINK they dictate foreign policy BECAUSE they have been dictating foreign policy!!! Trump came in and blew up their apple cart it is also the aid money being laundered right back into these corrupt legislators pockets and believe me the pubbies are in on this BS too!!! They dont become millionaires on their salary our taxpayer foreign aid dollars are making them millionaires, along with defense contractors laundering money back to them AND insider trading!!!
“White House predicts Pelosi will cave on withholding impeachment”
So now, to prove Trump wrong, she’ll have to refrain from going forward on impeachment. That will teach him!
New transcript from omb released is old information.
The Ukraine back to the Beltway money launderers have shown just a tiny part of the operation. It is massive and wide spread. The U.S. State Department is more like “”Suds-O-Cash”, with franchises in every embassy.
Her strategy is that she got her baby - impeachment - and she’s not giving it up.
She already snapped - it’s only the Botox holding her plastic visage together.

Pelosi may have died 10 or 15 years ago. What we see now is a bag of bones and skin picked by decades of botox injections. She can only fire off random phrases etched into her neural pathways.
That's the 'Rat MO: they used it against Clarence Thomas and then against Kavanaugh.
The asterisk beside Trump’s name is that he was impeached by the the democrat party, and not by the House.
