Third wildcat bid to Impeach Trump leaves Nancy Pelosi with egg all over her face

Fresh from the messy House bid to condemn President Trump for his tweets, House speaker Nancy Pelosi has another embarrassment on her hands — her inability to control Rep. Al Green, who launched his third impeachment bid against President Trump, failing spectacularly just like the past two times. His measure was squelched, 332-95, which President Trump tweeted gleefully.

That act, from the House's most feeble-minded member, is going to undercut Pelosi own bid to set the stage for impeachment. According to the left-leaning Texas Tribune:

Green's actions were widely dismissed as a rogue campaign with virtually no shot at passing. And some of Green's colleagues have questioned the timing of the push. On July 24, former special counsel Robert Mueller is scheduled to deliver his long-awaited testimony before Congress, an event that some Democrats argue could lay the groundwork for the path to impeachment.

That Pelosi couldn't stop even this guy from horning in on her impeachment act sends the message that Pelosi's bid will have the same result.

Hmmmm. Seems like no one is able to bring the class to order. LOL! Could be that san fran nan's attempt would have a little more support that mean al green. But, between the old guard and the new upstarts, a train wreck in slow motion. Get out the popcorn.

I’m sorry, but if I were a DEMOCRAT voter, I’d be pissed right now.

So let’s just assume for a minute that Trump IS a racist. And let’s further assume that what he said about those 4 twats WAS racist....

NEITHER of those things are “high crimes or misdemeanors”. WTF were they trying to impeach on???

I’d be writing letters and calling....”Get your acts together and do something or this guy is going to win re-election in a walk.”

That act, from the House's most feeble-minded member, . . .

One of the most feeble-minded, for sure. But THE most????

The competition for that title is quite intense. I could list a dozen worthy competitors without breaking a sweat.

The left has been pandering and encouraging the “useful idiot” for political gain, now they have reached a point where there are so many of them, they can’t contain or control them....

They have let the inmates run more and more of the asylum, now they completely run the place.

In anyplace but the bluest of blue districts, all the GOP has to do is talk up the accomplishments of this administration, show video and audio of these gang of 4, and simply state in very stark tones, if you love your country, I’m with you... if you don’t, well then vote Democrat.

You are thinking logically. They are being driven by their emotions.

Remember Mr. Spock from the original Star Trek? If he couldn't reason with some whacked out crazy, he just gave them the shoulder pinch.

When they were little, I sometimes had to do the same with my kids when they couldn't be reasoned out of an emotional tantrum.

This makes no sense. They DNC and the liberal liein’ flyin’ monkey media said they had evidence Trump committed a crime. They also say he is the most hated president and running a criminal enterprise from the White House, but 3 time up and 3 times it catches air. Could it be that these liars don’t want to be exposed by Trump (through discovery during impeachment) that they are lieing???? Say it ain’t so!

All 3 efforts came from Al Green (D-umbass), there is no concensus of support

The only thing missing from the Demagogic Party's latest fiasco was, a clown car pulls up, and a midget in a clown suit jumps out, sets up a stepladder in front of Pelosi, and a second midget clown jumps out, climbs the ladder, and smashes a pie in her face. Thanks rktman.

I would love for the socialists to try impeachment every week or two, kind of like Orwell’s ‘Two Minutes Hate’. As they keep doing this, more and more people will see exactly how useless this Congress is, wasting time on groundless grandstanding and avoiding the job of ‘legislators’ which is, not surprisingly, to LEGISLATE!

Keep it up, donkey party! The deeper the hole you dig, the harder it is to escape. Good job, dhimmicrats!

Illegal use of “midget” violation.

That calls for impeachment proceedings to follow this high crimes and misdemeanor act of political correctness violation.

Frankly, a risky, but I think profitable strategy, would have been for the entire republican caucus to vote “yes” on starting this impeachment inquiry.

THe argument would have been:
1. The democrats are already doing an impeachment inquiry, but they refuse to call it that; this would saddle them with the pain.
2. Green’s particulars don’t go to any illegal actions by the President; it would be a particularly weak impeachment inquiry, focusing on the most liberal democrats.
3. The republicans could call for a quick investigation, followed by an impeachment vote, which they would all vote against. If the democrats joined them, it would pretty much squelch the whole “impeachment” thing, while enraging the democratic base.

They are trying to kill Trump by death of 1000 cuts, but do not realize that he owns the band-aid company.

I don’t think they can claim this was some kind of rogue operation. The guy got 95 votes. The insane clown posse is not that far from a majority of the Dem caucus.
