Dem rep rips Pelosi for undermining Trump impeachment push
Fox News ^ | 5/15/18 | Adam Shaw

**SNIP**

Pelosi, in an interview with The Dallas Morning News, had said she wishes Democrats like Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, would not make impeaching Trump a rallying cry. "We have elections," she said. "Go vote if it's a policy thing and a behavior thing. I don't know if you can get impeached for being a jerk, but if we did, this guy would be long gone. But that's not unifying."

But Green, who has spearheaded the push to impeach Trump, criticized Pelosi, saying that reducing Trump to a jerk “trivializes the impact of his bigoted policies on Jews, Latinos, African-Americans, women and the LGBTQ community.”

“Trivializing his bigotry also allows Trump supporters to hypothesize that while Trump may be an objectionable jerk he is not an impeachable bigot, which is not true,” he said in a statement.

The New York Times reported recently that ahead of the November midterms, Republicans are using the Democratic push for impeachment as a way to energize conservatives -- warning of a “coup” from the anti-Trump left.

That could be braking news...

If Bigotry is a reason for Impeachment, how has any Democrat ever attained the Presidency?

The Dems have no platform and no message other than they don’t like Trump and until Mueller comes out with his report that has gotten boring.

In the meantime, DACA is unpopular, gun control is unpopular, tax hikes are unpopular, LGBTQ alienates large blocs of traditionally Dem constituencies (blacks and Latinos and working class voters).

The Dems are no more of a coherent party than the Republicans are.

Apparently, Trump’s policies that do not elevate these groups above others are discriminatory. The pinheads fail to realize that such policies are at their root discriminatory.

Nancy Pelosi might well see the beast she has worked so hard to create, and sees the danger.

Maybe.

Like those who were all into “Liberté, égalité, fraternité” until the thing gathered them up too and they finally realized what they had wrought.

Typically democrat.

Hide your true agenda in hopes you can sucker enough voters to give you a win or a majority.

The way I see it, there is still a chance for the Right, but the Left has sold out to the Radicals a long time ago.

Their feelings. He hurt their feelings, or, more specifically, the feelings of hypersensitive SJWs that claim to represent these groups. Everyone else is just fine.

I would welcome a coup from the left. Being around leftists and unable to escape their degenerate nature I’ve developed this twitch - especially in one finger...

What are you going to do, go into Congress and shoot them as they execute an impeachment?

This is laughable.

I guess the leaders of these “communities” were in line for vast amounts of free government cash and Trump’s election screwed that up.
