Pelosi: Democrats May Have ‘No Choice’ But to Impeach Trump
Breitbart ^ | 23 Apr 2019 | PAM KEY

Posted on 04/24/2019 4:20:09 PM PDT by detective

Tuesday at the “Time 100 Summit” during a question-and-answer session in New York City, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said the House may have “no choice” but to impeach President Donald Trump.

Pelosi said, “I do believe impeachment is one of the most divisive forces — paths we could go down to in our country. But if the facts, the path of fact-finding takes us there we have no choice but we are not there yet.”

Simple majority.
From wiki:

At the federal level, the impeachment process is a two-step procedure. The House of Representatives must first pass, by a simple majority of those present and voting, articles of impeachment, which constitute the formal allegation or allegations. Upon passage, the defendant has been “impeached”. Next, the Senate tries the accused. In the case of the impeachment of a president, the Chief Justice of the United States presides over the proceedings. For the impeachment of any other official, the Constitution is silent on who shall preside, suggesting that this role falls to the Senate’s usual presiding officer, the President of the Senate who is also the Vice President of the United States.

“2/3 of 435 House seats = 290 votes required to impeach”

Wrong it only takes a simple majority to impeach. I think they will do it. So Mueller holding his report for over a year was to make sure the Rats got the House and therefore impeachment.
Treasonous c-sucker

Andrew Jackson Johnson and Bubba were the only two Presidents ever impeached. Bubba said it was a badge of honor.

Fixed.

Translation: “Even though we have no evidence of a crime, we have to go on offense to try and stop him from putting so many of us in jail.”

It could very well backfire and hasten their indictments, trials, and life sentences. If you try to kill the King you better not miss and leave him alive to retaliate.

If Democrats try to use their official powers to impeach Trump to block him from indicating them for a coup, wouldn't that be their definition of obstruction?

However, I think they are going to hold out until as close to the election cycle as they can get, but however they do it, it is going to blow up in their damned faces.

The longer they wait, the better for us.

Trump will have more time to stack the courts and build his case against THEM.

Yes. Plastic used syringes are everywhere. But God forbid you get a plastic bag in the grocery store.

And there are probably posters here who still maintain the 2018 election wasn’t a disaster

That means they need to get 55 House Republicans to go along

Maybe the jackasses don't believe they need 290 votes. They can decide for themselves and screw voting.

That would depend on how quickly those cowards Brennan, Clapper, Comey, et. al. turn what we used to call “state’s evidence.” And I think that’s coming for one or more of them.
