Pelosi: Without new witnesses, Trump 'cannot be acquitted'
Washington Examiner ^ | January 30, 2020 | Susan Ferrechio

Posted on 01/30/2020 2:10:36 PM PST by kevcol

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters the president will not be exonerated if the Senate acquits him by this weekend because the trial would not be a fair one.

“He will not be acquitted,” Pelosi said Thursday. “You cannot be acquitted if you don't have a trial. And you don't have a trial if you don't have witnesses and documentation.”

DEM rationale ... if the trial is a sham, the defendant must be found guilty.

Idiot woman just got her dictionary mixed up. Dear Nancy, Without an impeachable offense, no president can be convicted.

Shutup Nancy.

You had your chance to build a compelling case. You failed to do so. It’s not the Senate’s responsibility to pick up your slack.

That responsibility falls squarely to your many plastic surgeons.

I suggest Pelosi pull the articles and start from square one. This way maybe due process could be afforded to President Trump in the house so the senate doesn’t have to do their job for them.

Sorry Nanzi, witnesses and documentation were YOUR job
not the job of the Senate.

You presented your witness/documentation now the
jury is out.

Remember that Black Crystal Ball a lot of kids had years ago?

I'm thinking the demoncRats 2020 edition sure doesn't seem like the one I had.

Maybe they have the all new Perdition Edition.

It’s all about keeping the House and taking the Senate in 2020, at a minimum.

So it’s guilty unless proven innocent?

Yep, let’s just all laugh at Drunk Nancy when she says complete and utter BS like this. Never mind she’s pissing all over the Constitution every single day, while getting OUR TAX $$$ TO DO IT!

The botox has gone to her brain.

There WERE witnesses. In the House. Where they should be. It’s not our problem that they rushed this Schiff Show to the Senate when they did.

The trial? It’s over Pelosi. Now we are just waiting for a just verdict.

Acquittal.

Well, "brilliant strategist" just got axed from her resume.

Or it should, anyway. With Dems you never know.
Stupid is as stupid does might apply.
