Hubris – Nancy Pelosi Declares: “the senate rules are unfair” – “when rules become fair we will send articles”…
CONSERVATIVE TREEHOUSE ^ | 12/18/2019 | SUNDANCE

Posted on 12/18/2019 8:44:20 PM PST by bitt

The entire House effort to impeach President Donald Trump has been a one-sided partisan effort; built upon a foundation of manipulation of process and dismissal of the minority rights throughout.

After the House voted along party lines, and in an act of stunning hubris, Speaker Pelosi now declares she will withhold the articles of impeachment until the Senate makes rules that she determines will be “fair” to the prosecution. [Video at 09:00 prompted]

No she is deliberately holding off on sending the Articles of Impeachment to the Senate because she thinks the Senate will be flipped come November. Then and only after the new members have taken their oaths, elected a new demoncrat leader in the Senate will she finally declare the rules as being fair and send over the Articles.

The demonrats honestly believe they will flip the Senate and hold onto the House. They also believe Trump will win 2nd term. And when this happens they will remove Trump and his running mate. They are setting Pence up already for impeachment by claiming he is complicit in Trump’s holding aid from Ukraine and Obstruction of Congress. This will then set the way for whoever is the Speaker of the House, which the demonrats believe it will be a demonrat. I am not sure Pehosi will be speaker after the November elections. I think she will retire and go the way of Reid. But then again Pehosi’s ego may not allow her to retire if she thinks she has a shot at being the first female President. Thus snubbing Hitlary at the same time. Pehosi has never liked the first domina in charge.

The Senate should submit to Pelosis’s request when Hell freezes over.

A senate trial will bring home the truth and she knows it

I just heard some talk radio guys say that Nancy is “chicken” to send it to the Senate. Then they suggested that Trump have “Chicken” rallys from now until she sends them.

Funny - but I don’t know. This is a serious charge, and while the Dems don’t seem to think it requires seriousness (in the form of facts and actual witnesses) - I hope that Trump continues to treat it seriously. Like he did in his letter.

“McConnell may be using the rules from the Clinton Senate trial, but she is using her own rules. I want to see how he is going to deal with this.”

This schiff has constitutional crisis written all over it. Fortunately WE have the Supreme Court.

Trump may win Deleware and Oregon.

Trump WILL win Deleware and Oregon.

And Illinois and Colorado and Vermont and ...

... all those other "blue" states whose idiotic legislators voted to assign their Electoral College votes to the "winner of the popular vote!"

Trump only "lost" the popular vote last time by 3 million votes.

He will win those 3 mil and much more this time.

Even California and New York have those laws on their books.

When their idiot legislators wake up and realize what they have done, I am looking for a MAD SCRAMBLE to rescind their idiocy, but there won't be time between Nov 4 and whenever the Electoral College convenes in December, 2020.

No way “we” can get a fair trial in the Senate.***

Not up to you.

You’re part is done.

You have no say re Senate trial.

So send papers to Senate or not.

Trump’s impeached.

Keep the paperwork between Nadler’s chins doesn’t matter.

Senate can have trial or dismiss

Stay out of it.

Mitch should say “The Congressional Record shows the House passing articles of impeachment. The trial will begin on Jan 2, 2020.”

Then schedule a vote to dismiss.

You said it. The 'Rats in the House set up a Star Chamber/Kangaroo Court to impeach the President and now are whining about "fairness"?

I say follow the process the Constitution specifies. The Founders knew what they were doing when they wrote it. The House has done their job, such as it was (railroading the President). Now let the Senate do its job. The 'Rats can choose to be part of the process (send their managers to make their case) or not (withhold them). Let Trump make his case. Then vote to convict or acquit. That's it. And be quick about it because like most I'm getting very weary of the whole rotten show.

I think the public should vote to rebuild a few insane asylums for the dems. Lots of meds, locked gates, no visitation,

Total insanity. Nothing but a bunch of spoiled 3 year olds throwing tantrums. History will not be kind to them.

The democrats think they run the country and do not see themselves as just equal branches of the government.

This needs to be used against her and the democrats. Call her Queen Nancy, Court Jester Shifty Shift, etc.

Abuse of power. The SOH is attempting to govern the proceedings of the Senate.

So, if there are no rules, there is no trial because the House chose not to present the indictment

The House effort was therefore a sham
