Pelosi says impeachment leaves ‘spring’ in people’s step
Seattle Post Intelligence ^ | December 19, 2019 | By The Associated Press

Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that people have a “spring in their step” after the House impeached President Donald Trump, but she insisted the Senate must provide more details about the expected trial in that chamber before she agrees to send the House charges over.

Pelosi was upbeat the morning after the historic vote that made Trump only the third president in U.S. history to be impeached.

“We’ve been hearing from people all over the country,” Pelosi told reporters at the Capitol. “Seems like people have a spring in their step because the president was held accountable for his reckless behavior.”

Pressed about next steps, Pelosi wouldn’t say.

“The next thing will be when we see the process that is set forth in the Senate,” Pelosi said. “Then we’ll know the number of managers we may have to go forward and who we would choose.”

She said the previous night, “So far we haven’t seen anything that looks fair to us. So hopefully it will be fair. And when we see what that is, we’ll send our managers.”

Complicating any decision to delay are House Democrats’ arguments in recent weeks that Trump’s impeachment was needed “urgently,” arguing his actions were a threat to democracy and the fairness of the upcoming 2020 election.

I saw a post on Twitter this morning from a Union Electrician in Seattle Washington that said his entire crew is leaving the Democrat Party and will be voting for Trump. Is this the spring in the step she is talking about?

From the Washington Examiner:

“I was not prepared to put the managers and that bill yet because we don’t know the arena we are in,” Pelosi said Thursday.

She grew frustrated Thursday when reporters continued to question her about her plans for the impeachment articles.

Pelosi said she would appoint managers “when we see what their process is, not until then.” She then declined further questions on it.

“I’m not going to go there anymore,” she said.

Has anyone mentioned that this impeachment problem has become a “PYRRHIC VICTORY?”

This is the epitome of stepping on that “rake.”

The only reason there’s any spring in her step is because she’s back in San Fran and trying avoid stepping in piles of shit on the sidewalk.
