I think Nancy Pelosi got played by Adam Schiff. First, he engineered this “whistleblower” account of President Trump’s phone call with the President of the Ukraine. Once that was in place, I think he told Pelosi that the details of the conversation would be “devastating” if they were ever made public. Pelosi, taking Schiff at his word, jumped the gun and immediately announced the impeachment inquiry. She thought President Trump would resist all efforts to release the transcript of the call, allowing the Democrats to claim there was a cover-up. She figured he would eventually be forced to release the “devastating” transcript, at which point they would have all of the evidence they needed for impeachment. As usual, President Trump out maneuvered them by releasing the transcript immediately. Once she saw the actual transcript, she knew she had been had, and the Democrats had nothing. I suspect she’s now looking for a way out of this “impeachment inquiry” without looking like a total fool.
