She knows impeachment will not pass and then the core Dem constituency will be mad that the Dems could not even agree that he committed a crime.
Now just imagine if Trump said...."I would consider it an honor to be impeached".
I would add if enough Romney Republican senators vote to remove, Trump will still win in 2020.
great post. good analysis, first i have heard it but it sounds right
I agree with most of what you wrote except that most Democrat members of Congress think that this conspiracy to get rid of Trump never existed. For example Ro Khanna said in a CNN interview that James Baker said the Christopher Steele dossier had nothing to do with the Trump Russia investigation. Ro Khanna believes there was nothing wrong with the Trump Russia investigation. Nancy Pelosi doesn’t want impeachment because the senate will never convict Trump (I think 53 Republicans and Joe Manchin will vote no) and even independents will pay attention and realize the Democrats spent 2019 and 2020 on impeachment, not on the people’s business. The impeachment attempt will reelect Trump.
However, it has seemed to me for months that Pelosi/Nadler would certainly wish to air for the MSM's benefit a full blown House debate over Trump they can control.
The object would not be to forward the matter to the Senate but rather simply to raise sufficient questions and doubts for the purpose of defeating Trump in any R preliminaries or the general election.
Of course, they and the MSM must find and quietly support viable R candidates for any primaries and they must generate enough credible witnesses and evidence to stage an endless circus; but it appears they have world-class resources at their disposal.
I heard someone call into a talk radio show suggesting that some people probably believe that if he gets impeached, hillary replaces him.
Hillary may not survive the impeachment of Trump because all of her dirt will be exposed. It might well be the end of the Democrat Party as we know it. This might even endanger the Republic as tyrants might see it as an excellent time to attack America—with a distracted “weak” Trump unable to respond.
bttt
The money shot in that piece and what she knows and is terrified of.... The President will now have the ability to defend himself, call and question witnesses, present evidence(all of it), and the corruption of this whole process will be on display for all the world to see. The minions in this coup will put themselves in jeopardy of committing Perjury, Violation of Oath of Office, Obstruction, the lawyers on Mueller’s team can get rolled for lying to the court and withholding exculpatory evidence.
It would prove to be a complete Sh*tShow for the Dem’s. For some reason, Pelosi knows this or so it seems that she’s being coached by someone with a little bit of a brain. Her statements prove it when she says she’s not about impeachment but wants to see the man in prison.
I know everyone of us is frustrated to no end about this whole thing and wish the President would put it all out there. But, what better way to do it than in a venue where they won’t be able to hide or spin anything. He puts something out there now, they’ll go after him for something, try to spin it in some way. The information is presented as evidence is an entirely different story and the Dem’s are the ones asking that it become part of the record. They’ll be cutting their own throats.
>>I think 53 Republicans and Joe Manchin will vote no<<
I count 61 FOR impeachment: 47 Democrats (they ALWAYS stick together), Sasse, Murkowski, Toomey, Burr, Collins, Romney, Rubio, Tillis, Portman, Lee, Shelby, Alexander, McConnell and Paul. Possibly Graham and Cruz.

IMPEACH 45!
It would be the greatest troll in history.
Pelosi wants impeachment but just doesn’t want impeachment ... now ... until they get their ducks in a row. Pelosi is not worried about testimony because the MSM will only replay the portions that help them. Sure ... maybe some will watch CSPAN and catch some spineless RINOs “interrogating” witnesses but there will be no gotcha moments. The witnesses are too slick for that and our RINO senators are too incompetent.
The reason they want impeachment is simple ... to tarnish Trump forever in the history books so Trump joins Johnson and Clinton in the Presidents Hall of Shame. Most supporters fired up positively by impeachment will be dead in 30 years. The left writes the history books.
Freeper lonster was the first to pass this along from an acquaintance a week ago.
All credit goes to lonster.
If impeachment is a symbolic effort that would help Trump, then the Russians must be behind the impeachment effort as that seems to be the logical extension of Democrat logic.
Don’t kid yourself. There is a strong likelihood that 25 or so GOPe senators would vote to remove Trump.
Explain Graham and Cruz please.
