Clyburn: House may wait until after Biden's first 100 days to send impeachment articles to Senate
CNN ^

House Majority Whip James Clyburn on Sunday said House Democrats might wait until after President-elect Joe Biden's first 100 days in office to send any articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump to the Senate, a move that would give the incoming President time to tackle his agenda in Congress before the start of a time-consuming trial. "We'll take the vote that we should take in the House, and (House Speaker Nancy Pelosi) will make the determination as to when is the best time to get that vote and get the managers appointed and move that legislation over to the Senate," Clyburn told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union." "It just so happens that if it didn't go over there for 100 days, it could -- let's give President-elect Biden the 100 days he needs to get his agenda off and running, and maybe we'll send the articles sometime after that," the South Carolina Democrat added.

They need to do the 25th Amendment on Democratic leadership. This is insane. They are going to impeach Trump this week and then after Biden’s first 100 days have a Trump trial in the Summer. LOL

It’s meant to keep Trump quiet once he leaves.

Clyborn is such a laughable idiot, a moron on full display. How such patently stupid and ignorant people become members of Congress is frightening. I blame congenital low IQ exacerbated by libtard public school indoctrination.

Satire should be labeled as such.

Great idea clyburn. Then we can compare the first 100 days of the DJT administration to that of the communist party and the destruction your party will have caused in 100 days.

Btw, how many more white churches will have to burn?

Or it could basically be them backing out, hard to say right now.

I would think they’d know it’s political suicide if they did it. So they’ll just quietly let it go.

Who knows?

It’s meant to keep Trump quiet once he leaves....and make sure he can’t run in 2024.

Of course it could just be all empty blather like “Lock Her Up!” was.

How can they impeach a former president?
A former president is just a citizen.
When they can impeach and try average citizens...

How Soviet of them indeed!

An impeached President can never run for federal office again. So it doesn’t matter if the trial occurs after he leaves office. They want to make sure he doesn’t run in 2024.

Let them do it. It’ll make Trump a martyr and clear the Republican primary for Don Jr. or Ivanka.

Must be from the Bee as you can only impeach a sitting president.

And that’s why it will be supported by some Republicans. They want to keep President Trump out of the 2024 primaries.

That’s fine. By then, we should know the backgrounds of every protester arrested for being in the Capitol that day.

By the way, is there any video of the policy officer having been struck on the head with a fire extinguisher, and has the attacker been identified?
