Pelosi shuts down possibility of censuring Trump
CNN ^ | Jan 11, 2021 | Manu Raju and Phil Mattingly

Posted on 01/11/2021 3:14:52 PM PST by McGruff

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on an ongoing call with House Democrats, called the idea of censuring President Trump “an abdication” and made clear it is not an option she’s willing to consider, according to a person on the call.

Republicans, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, have floated the idea throughout the day with no real takers from the Democratic side.

McCarthy told his colleagues that there should not be a vote to impeach Trump this week, arguing that instead there needs to be a bipartisan commission to get all the facts first.

He also suggested that there should be a clarification and reforms to the Electoral College Act of 1887, according to source on the call.

Censure for what? Fight hard for America? Peacefully protest at the Capitol?

Reforms after the votes that have already been done. That way this can never be done to them. Do something dirty and get away with it right in your face and then change the law so it can not be done to you.

McCarthy is basically doing kabuki opposition, but it is amusing that he is exploiting the endless delays and process stupidity that these politicians have constructed.

Not you, but I will be rude to a few others by reminding them they once said here “Pelosi won’t let the young hotheads impeach Trump because the Dems will lose the next election if they try to overplay their hand by impeaching Trump. People were sympathetic to Bill Clinton after that happened.”

I said then “Bill Clinton is a Dem.”

So it’s a purported phone call. Unnamed sources. No in-person confirmation. Where is the Botox Bitch, and when is the last time she’s been seen in public?

Just knowing she’s in a holding cell with a tattood biker-ette named Large Marge would get me through the worst of bad days ... :-)

Dems don’t like facts. . .and as an obama female (?) said confidently in court (I heard it), “Just because you saw him do it, if he said he din-do-it, he din-do-it.’

Can’t argue with that insanity.

It’s possible, but some definite confirmation would be awesome.

I thought the same thing!!! Republicans have gone into full surrender mode in hopes that the Democrats will spare them. They won’t. And the 75 million voters for Trump won’t forget when the Republicans stood back and let the left take over the country.

What if 70 million wrote the drag queen and all announced “I’m Donald Trump, censure me”

Pelosi is grumpy and crazy because some homeless dude sat in her chair and put his feet on her desk.
