The Democratic Party, on Wednesday, voted overwhelmingly for Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY) to replace resigned Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) on the House Judiciary Committee. Nadler, a constitutional law expert, won the spot over Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA), an architect of immigration legislation, by secret ballot with 118 to 72 votes.
The Washington Post noted on Thursday that the decision to fill their top spot on the committee demonstrates the Democratic Partys willingness [t]o ready themselves for a battle with Trump that could end with impeachment proceedings.
Should the Democrats regain control of the House during next years mid-term elections, they intend to lay the groundwork to get Trump impeached.
There is nobody better prepared, if the president messes around with the Constitution, to handle it than Jerry Nadler, Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY) said after Wednesdays vote, according to the Washington Post.
For several months now, Democratic leadership, including Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), have pushed their party to put a lid on impeachment talks.

What in the world are these politicians smoking. They are delusional.
Nadler, a constitutional law expert, and proud member of the American Communist Party ...
The GOP found out the hard way that impeaching Clinton with no hope of convicting him in the Senate (2 thirds majority required) only helped him in the polls. The Lying, Dying Fake News Liberal Media will be against Trump but he is the consummate counter puncher and would survive.
All you have to do is look at your 401K and Trump wins again - the democrats know it
So if the Democrats take the House (which I think is unlikely at this point) they can impeach Trump every week, but they might as well just sit around in a circle and bang on drums. It takes 67 Senate votes to convict and I can't see where the votes would come from.
Impeaching Trump would keep the Democrats from doing things even more harmful and would likely improve Trump's popularity, (as it did with Clinton's).
The democrats can’t control their bodily functions let alone a majority in Congress.

I have heard of Nadler for years. I have never heard he called a constitutional expert. Well, except these last few days.
Heck there are some RINOs that might join the dems on impeachment. It is not as far-fetched as it seems.
The dems rationale for impeachment — they don’t like him. That’s all they’ve got.
Sort of how Nancy Pelosi’s a ‘devout’ Catholic!
They did that when they took over Congress in 2006 and sparked the housing crisis that crashed the economy in 2008.
Everyone blamed Bush.
They hate his guts..to leftists that’s enough reason to impeach..gee I wonder what would have happened if Republicans had tried the same stunt when Obama was President..let me guess “Oh that’s racist” and that would have been the end of it
When “stuff” rolls uphill by gravity, they may just pull it off.
Just because they want to.
Nasler said this:
* President Trump has engaged in a persistent and dangerous effort to discredit both the free press and the Department of Justice. These are the agencies and institutions under our jurisdictions.
>> Actually, no theyre not. But IQs under 80 will believe this guy.
* He said, referring to the Republicans in power, Every minute that our majority wastes on covering for President Trump is a minute lost on finding a solution for the DREAMers
>> Solution: dis-employ their parent(s)
* for curbing a vicious spike in hate crimes
>> Source please, Nasler. Even if true, not linked to Trump
* preventing dangerous individuals from purchasing firearms
>> Trump wants this
* stopping the president from further damaging the constitutional order.
>> in short, he gots nothin
...Listened to Rush today, sounds a lot different than he used to.
Might be looking at retiring soon...
He will only retire when Bo Snerdly and the crew have to carry him out feet first.
If these criminals impeach Trump there is going to be blood in the streets, their blood.
Have the Dems thunk up any charges yet, or are they going to attempt impeachment because....”Trump!”
On what grounds? Because they disagree with him?
Removing the colon from the headline makes for a more accurate headline.
Bo was never a professor of any sort. He was a part timer that gave a few lectures. I’m not sure he was even paid. Old media liars labeled this African conartist a professor for this pathetic effort. It usually takes a decade or more to reach full professor. Of course, mr Obama never objected since he was a lying dirtbag too.
