Trump Impeachment Vote Could Come ‘As Soon As Tuesday’ According To Senior Democrat
Nation & State ^ | 1-10-2021 | Tyler Durden

Democratic efforts to impeach President Trump for a second time are well underway, with a senior Democratic lawmaker telling Bloomberg that a House vote on articles of impeachment could come as soon as Tuesday, which would then be held for several months before they send them to the Senate in order to avoid triggering an immediate trial.

According to House Majority Whip James Clyburn, Democrats are “working hard” on an article of impeachment which demonstrates that Trump is “unqualified to be president.”

“I think that will come probably Tuesday and maybe Wednesday,” Clyburn told “Fox News Sunday.”

Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gave Trump an ultimatum last week; resign immediately, or face impeachment 2.0 for encouraging supporters to march on Capitol Hill last Wednesday – when a mostly peaceful protest against the counting of Electoral College votes turned into what the left is calling an ‘insurrection’ after law enforcement oddly opened the doors to the building, allowing protesters to ‘storm’ the Capitol.

According to Bloomberg, Pelosi is moving cautiously despite internal pressure from her caucus to punish Trump – while President-elect Joe Biden has made clear that he isn’t interested in a Trump impeachment sideshow while his administration is trying to focus on their agenda. Pelosi has told lawmakers to be “prepared to return to Washington” this week for a potential impeachment vote or some other type of formal response to Trump’s alleged role in encouraging the breach on Capitol hill that left five people dead (despite the fact that he told supporters to peacefully assemble and to peacefully leave following the incident).

According to Clyburn, however, any successful impeachment in the House

It’s political theater to make Trump the only POTUS impeached twice ! It’s political image tarnishing for 2024 to try and keep him from running again.

No, they are acting like some terrible fate awaits them which they are doing anything to avoid, no matter how desperate. They are afraid of him.

Is it Constitutional for the Senate to hold an impeachment trial for an official who no longer draws a Federal paycheck?

Paging Professor Dershowitz!

I remember when Trump was impeached last year, Crazy Nancy sat on the articles for a month before she sent them to the senate.

Will she do the same thing now?.....

It's possible that Pelosi has been arrested based upon info on her laptop that was grabbed by special forces that mixed in with the antifa guys that went into her office.

This was reported by Lt Gen Tom Mcinerney. Another report is that she was arrested trying to get to Canada.

One of the things that caught a lot of people off guard -- including me -- is that Trump's approval ratings apparently went UP in the days after the January 6th fiasco.

I'm guessing one of the things driving this is that these morons in Congress and the media are looking transparently silly when they refer to the incident as a "riot" and call people like these pictured below "insurrectionists."

Most of these people were clowns ... engaged in what was basically a fraternity prank with some Hagar the Horrible/Chewbacca dude as their ringleader.

Heck -- they even have their own new Lego set in the making. :-P

It’s been the method to Trump’s Madness all along. Provoke the Rats into an overreaction, and expose them.

If they do this, it will backfire on them and deeply divide the Nation. If Biden has any brains, he will step in and put a halt on this.

LOL. It is often inadvertent. In this case, I doubt it is some grand plan.

An impeachment after he leaves office smells like a Bill of Attainder to me. Especially the talk of taking his citizenship away.

Trump Impeachment Vote Could Come ‘As Soon As Tuesday’

Is it the hair this time, or is it the accent? Is his wife too charming?

So many impeachable offenses, so little time!

Clyburn is a leftist fascist that played a key hand in the last attempt at impeachment.

Clyburn needs to be arrested and charged with treason.
