"I am not for impeachment," Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats


Yeah, "..nobody goes there anymore, its too crowded..."


...except for the 64% of American's that believe Trump is a crook. Last time I checked, when 64% percent of the country believes you are a crook, you "re-election" is in serious doubt.....

64% think Trump committed crimes before he was President - CNNPolitics

His approval ratings are higher than Obama's at this point. Good luck with Bernie.
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

You have no idea what you have no idea about, unless you have Mueller's notes. Thus, Pelosi rightly stated that she doesn't want impeachment because she knows she needs Republican Senators to convict, which they will only do if the evidence is compelling.

I am old enough to remember Watergate. Back then, Republicans resisted impeachment until the evidence uncovered was overwhelming. We will find out shortly how much evidence exists against Individual-1 Trump.

If Mueller had the goods, we would have long known it by now.

What decade do you think this is?
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

No I don't.
I know what they used to say. But today I'm not sure what they say.
Maybe its something like...
"If we lose, we'll scream and cry and lie and call people names and tear the nation in 2. So we'd better win or else."
Is it something like that?

No.

Consequences.

One of the reasons many Ds won is because the public got sick and tired of the Rs not performing oversight.

Now there is going to be oversight.
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

According to 538, Trump has an approval rating of 41.7% (March 12). Obama had a 48% approval rating at the same point.

Moreover, Trump has a 53.3% disapproval rating. Obama had a 45.5% disapproval rating.

Oversight. Is that what you call this witch hunt now? Oversight?
I think you're full of it.

Call it whatever you prefer, but in formal terms it's called "Congressional oversight".
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

His approval ratings are higher than Obama's at this point. Good luck with Bernie.

1. Obama scored 5,000,000 less votes in his re-election bid. Trump won by a razor thin margin of 85,000 votes in three states. Trump has no votes to give up.

2. Trumps ratings continue to trail Obama's as of this point in the presidency. More importantly, Obama never had disapproval ratings any where near Trump's.

2 Years of Trump vs. 2 Years of Obama:

3. Apparently you have not paid attention to any election since 2016, where Democrats have repeatedly and consistently outperformed their own numbers of 2016 and prior. They out polled the Reps by 7-9 points nationally, leading to 40 seat pick up in the house, 9 new governors and 7 state house flips. What was most telling in the last election were very solid "blue" performances in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. A reasonable person would be quick to surmise that that path is not closed to the re-elect Trump effort.

Impeachment for what?

There is no case for impeaching him. Simply not b progressive enough for progressives isnt a good enough reason.

Well, we'll see. Obstruction of Justice, suborning perjury. They are putting an awful lot of effort into covering up nothing.

No, you're not using New Math, in New Math 41.7 > 48

At the bar it's called a ****-show. Better known as an abuse of congressional powers.
You had your Super Meuller. He found...nothing so far, with respect to why his little kingdom was created.
In the process he managed to further sully the image of the US intel community. Bravo.

Now that the Dems see they ain-a-gonna get what they wanted, Schiff is gonna move the witch hunt into Congress.
I think its both comical and childish at the same time.
Don't you?

You back on AOC again?

How many threads you start on AOC ? Is this a stalking type of thing ?

I don't know, I stopped counting.

Nope.

The GOP should have at least tried to not turn a blind eye to everything. They should have provided just a little oversight. Instead, they ignored everything related to the WH.

Blame them.
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

The Dems are less than 2 years from another presidential election.

Their party is being led by Ocacio-Cortez, Oman, and Tlaib, and they're running it into the ground.

They have no message to run on at all.

The ollusion nonsense is over.

The impeachment nonsense is over.

Kavanaugh happened. Covington happened. Smollett happened.

Cohen woefully disappointed.

People are past it. They're rolling their eyes.

And it looks like socialism is going to win their nomination behind an Independent corpse as be their candidate.

Who admittedly LOVES Russia and everything about it.

First, Trump somehow beat them. And now Bernie is about to take their party hostage.

Pelosi doesn't know what to do.

Do you mind telling me how Omar, AOC and Tlaib are "running the party" exactly?
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

I don't believe that. I think if evidence was presented supporting the original witch hunt they would impeach. I am glad that they are not willing to impeach over a fishing expedition with nothing to support this calamity we have had to endure for the past 2 years. Pelosi has surprised me by allowing intelligence to make her decision rather than bias hate.
My point is that you shouldn't be surprised. She had exactly the same opinion about every single impeachment effort since Watergate, regardless of the party trying to do the impeachment. She is philosophically opposed to turning Congress into a courthouse for 6 months to a year unless the clear evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors and a credible chance that the votes exist to convict. She sees it as a waste of time and money for all three branches involved.

Huh. Literally nothing you stated is actually true or based in reality.

WHAT a surprise!
 
Re: ‘I’m not for impeachment,’ Pelosi says, potentially roiling fellow Democrats

Me too. I can hardly wait for the conclusion of that investigation so the juicy parts can begin. The SDNY is going to 'nail them to the cross'. And...."I LOVE it" And, the SDNY doesn't have to get permission from those filthy republicans to indict his ass.

They're already looking into the mob boss's finances.

They aren't, but their comments in the news and social media are getting all the attention and being made to look like party planks, and causing reactions from party leaders.

Their thoughts and views are driving party attention and the news cycle. But not policy.

Yes, Fox News talks about them 24/7. Most Fox News viewers will oppose them anyway.

They aren't their party leaders. They aren't running the party. Pelosi is. That's a pretty undisputable fact. if they were running the party, they would be convening articles of impeachment against Trump right now and there wouldn't have been even a penny given to Trump for his wall.

They are not running the party.
They are running the news cycle and that is creating bad optics for the Democrat Party.

They are fighting among themselves and the right naturally is capitalizing on their blunders.

It's been the Republicks who have started roughly every AOC thread, claiming this big split in the Democratic party. I don't see it myself. There's always been the far left wing and the more moderate/corporate center, with the latter in actual control.
