House impeachers can hide from a trial, but they can’t run
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is upset. She let her caucus impeach President Trump on dubious charges with a narrow partisan majority and without taking the time to gather evidence that she now believes must be heard in a Senate trial as it might convince a skeptical public. And now, huge surprise, the Republican Senate appears poised to send the resulting impeachment articles straight to the circular file.
As of Friday, Pelosi was still withholding the articles of impeachment from the Senate. She is making demands that the Senate trial be run in a particular way, even though the California Democrat is not a senator and has no constitutional role in shaping the trial.
“Their turn is over,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican from Kentucky. “They’ve done enough damage. It’s the Senate’s turn now to render sober judgment.” And by that, he means the Senate will hear from impeachment managers like they did during Bill Clinton's impeachment, and then they will promptly vote to acquit.
Pelosi lashed out in response: “Today, Leader McConnell made clear that he will feebly comply with President Trump’s cover-up of his abuses of power and be an accomplice to that cover-up."
But this is just the voice of the loser. What is going on between her and McConnell is not a “standoff” or an “impasse,” as the media would have you believe. It is a straight-up defeat for House Democrats.
Having hastily impeached without gathering the requisite evidence and testimony that they are now demanding after-the-fact, Democrats are left with no good choices. They hardly sound credible whining that the Senate needs to hear from a bunch of new witnesses — after all, they didn’t need any of those witnesses to impeach, did they?
If House Democrats send the impeachment to the Senate to be voted down, then they will look weak. Trump will spend the next 10 months running around, claiming that he has been vindicated. If House Democrats instead chicken out and swallow their own articles of impeachment, then they also lose. McConnell will shrug and smirk while Trump spends the next 10 months crowing about how they tried to impeach him but lacked the guts to make their case.
Pelosi was initially correct to discourage impeachment. She recognized that a purely partisan impeachment process, conducted entirely for the sake of obtaining a cheap political boost, would work against her party and probably even strengthen Trump. But under withering fire from the extreme Left, she ultimately acquiesced. As a result, House Democrats now find themselves exposed. They already pulled the trigger, and there are no more bullets left in the gun.
If Democrats felt they had a serious case for impeachment that would convince the public, then they would be shoving the articles down McConnell’s throat right now with utter glee, excitedly looking forward to a Senate vote that would surely end the careers of multiple Republicans.
Instead, they are despondent, fearful, wondering whether their conspicuous act of political self-gratification didn't just hand Trump a second term.
Meanwhile, support for impeachment has dwindled. Trump’s approval ratings are up — to 45% according to the RealClearPolitics average, nearly the highest point of his presidency. Reputable state polls suggest that Joe Biden is the only candidate with a prayer of stopping him, but Biden is the one Democrat arguably hurt most by impeachment. The whole story, after all, revolves around an attempt to have him investigated in connection with the flagrantly corrupt dealings of his out-of-control son.
House Democrats are the dog that caught the car. Due to the supposedly urgent need to remove Trump from office as soon as possible, they went and impeached him without a case that will convince anyone outside of their own partisan fever swamps. Now that they’ve impeached — well, suddenly Trump’s removal isn’t so urgent after all. It can wait. Maybe it will end up waiting five years.

Wonderwhether she might be concocting some kind of surprise using the State of the Union as a platform?

What, like an assassination attempt? It's the only thing she could try now.

This thread has 14 days to go, if I’m correct, before it is shut down and the Year IV thread begins. Let’s not have it go off the rails at this point, geez.

Excellent article, wcb9062. They really stepped in it and they’re starting to panic as the realization sets in.

The bloviating idiot strikes again...with NOTHING. I guess she likes getting slapped in the peepee.
Nancy Pelosi says House will vote to limit Trump's war powers on Iran as tensions grow
"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

So, the article leads to the conclusion that Nancy is not in control of the House, but merely the lackey for all her underlings?
Maybe the "auto-correct" threw the writer off in the first sentence.
"...She let her caucus impeach President Trump on dubious charges..."
I think the writer typed; "...She led her caucus to impeach President Trump on dubious charges..."
But once auto-correct had its way with the thing, Nancy just became a hostage to the out of control inmates running the institution.
I think the scales are and will fall from the eyes of those who have enough sense to blink.
Having someone on your side does not mean they will vote for you, but having someone on the other side pissed at their side, often ends up a vote for you, and those people also are good at getting other people to vote "their way". And remember, boys and girls, a vote for DJT from a Democrat counts as a "twofer".
Message to the left. Keep fighting against DJT, we like the votes.
And to ERJ. So, during the campaigning, this will be about how the Leftest and those in the House, worked against America's national security, and weaken our appearance in the world.
Message sent? "Time to clean House!"

For crying out loud...its like Iran-born Valerie Jarrett is still in the wings, running the Democrats, like she ran Obama for 8 years.
