Adam Schiff: Impeachment gamble not worth it without 'very graphic evidence'
Washington Examiner ^ | 3/11/19 | Daniel Chaitin

Posted on 03/11/2019 5:22:04 PM PDT by Libloather

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., rushed to the defense of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Monday, saying only "graphic evidence" would warrant an impeachment gamble against President Trump.

"In the absence of very graphic evidence, it would be difficult to get the support in the Senate needed to make an impeachment successful. Again, my feeling is let's see what Bob Mueller produces. But the evidence would have to be pretty overwhelming," Schiff told CNN.

Across the caucus, Democrats have been asked to comment about Pelosi, D-Calif., abruptly shutting the door on impeachment in an interview published Monday.

In October, Schiff opened the door to impeaching Trump over family tax fraud, but he also tamped down expectations in an interview in January in which he said Trump would more likely be voted out of office.

If Schiffty spins this any harder, those eyes will come completely out. (They got nuthin'.)

“”’graphic evidence”””

Interesting choice of words......why would they come out with this phrase at this point and time...

Now I’m convinced they got wind of what Mueller’s got cooking. They’re backing away to make it look more spontaneous when they go for impeachment due to his ‘report’.

Pathetically obvious.

First it was pelosi, now schiff, both on the same day.

Somebody must have “leaked” just how much hard evidence PDJT has on the proglibs.

Also H clinton all of a sudden got her law license renewed after what, 17 years?

hummm...

Never mind the fruitless final Mueller report...

I think Nancy and Adam have seen some POLLS.

Things are getting interesting....

Then again, the Dems might be sandbagging us. I would not put it past them to do so. Keep your powder dry, kiddies.

Collusion:

Many democrats (Leftists/Communists) teamed up to contribute to a soft coup attempt against the president of the United States.

I think Trump has something really big to release if the dems get out of line. They know it and are attempting to plug the potential hole in the swamp drain.

Their internal polling must be showing that the Dems will get shellacked in 2020 if they try to impeach the President

“High Crimes and Misdemeanors” are whatever they can convince enough of the public are impeachable and removable offenses. It has nothing to do with actual crimes, but most of the public doesn’t know this little factoid.

The public wants proof, and they have none.

After 4 years of throwing everything they have at Trump, he is only gaining in popularity and effectiveness.

Does he mean the evidence he’s claimed to have for a year but has never produced?

"Impeachment is going to be left to the new, young, bucks."

Gawd, I hope so !!! Maybe they'll try to hold up every democrat initiative until impeachment charges are brought.

Nothing I'd like better than a unruly mob gathered around the the tattoo covered bearded lady and the fat drag queen like Carnival barkers on the steps of the House every day shouting into megaphones demanding impeachment.

And last night Pelosi says, "I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country. Impeaching Trump is just not worth it."

Schiff and Pelosi are chicken sh*t posers. The blow back from even attempting that would send their world tumbling down range.

Not disclosing a criminal act is itself a criminal act.

I am not a vote to be played like a fiddle, and only to be allowed the truth when politically advantageous.

This isn't a game.
