Sen. Tom Cotton on Pelosi and impeachment: 'I think Nancy is anything but a master strategist here'
Fox News ^ | January 16 2020 | Victor Garcia

Posted on 01/16/2020 11:12:16 PM PST by knighthawk

Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., appeared on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Thursday and literally laughed off the chances of even one Senate Republican voting to remove President Trump from office following the forthcoming impeachment trial.

"Can you mention any scenario where the president loses Republicans, any Republicans in the Senate in this trial?" host Tucker Carlson asked.

"I don't know, Tucker," Cotton responded, later joking: "We [may] have to listen to [House Intelligence Committee chairman] Adam Schiff and [House Judiciary Committee chairman] Jerry Nadler drone on for so long that we sue for mercy and say we'll do anything to make it end."

The outcome, you can kinda predict. I think the key question left here is if Hunter and Joe Biden are subpoenaed and face questions. That’s probably the only five-star moment yet to come.

Note, if this does go four weeks...then Warren and Sanders are utterly finished on the campaign trail, and their chances dissolve quickly. If Joe Biden is subpoenaed, his chances dissolve quickly. You may be left with a primary season, and only Mayor Pete and Bloomberg as choices.

The Bidens are bait. The person we want on the stand is Mary McCord, who certainly knows the details of how this latest hoax was conducted.

Intriguing. They must have read the 2 Articles & realize how “Constitutionally incoherent” they really are!

"Despite Nancy Pelosi and Jerry Nadler's and Adam Schiff's best efforts, what we heard read on the Senate floor today simply does not add up to the constitutional standard of impeaching and certainly not removing a president from office," Cotton said, before taking a shot at Schiff. "So we'll listen to what they have to say. Although I got to say, just listening to 20 minutes of Adam Schiff was already pretty taxing today, I can't imagine 24 hours of it."

Must be brutal to sit through a BS show without a cell phone, magazine or book.

The Intel state is running the impeachment train. Pelosi and Schiff just get their daily scripts.

She was with the coup team at DOJ, worked with the guy who became ICIG, then worked directly for Schiff in composing the “whistleblower” hoax.

Hope? Hell, they don't need to hope for that...the rinos will cave once this gets going. They can't stand the media saying bad things about them. The dems will get 55-60 votes for conviction. The rinos cut a deal with Mitch to let enough of them vote with the dems so as to kill Trump's reelection.

Freeper thoughtomator :"She was with the coup team at DOJ, worked with the guy who became ICIG,

Obviously she knows the who, what, when , and why
of the Democratic "Clown circus" of serial investigations.
She, alone, could end this continuing circus of 'daisy- chain" investigations and impeachments.

And it is the ICIG who changed the rules
to allow third-hand hearsay which allowed the hearsay testimony. Third-hand hearsay is NOT Constitutionally admissible in ANY COURT !

Thanks, so many traitorous individuals it’s difficult to keep track of them all. Are there enough lampposts to solve the deep state problem?
