Not after recent revelations. Or revelations of past. Or continued revelations.

What I, Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans all find funny is, this impeachment was so urgent to get done in the House and yet, Speaker Pelosi is holding it. Must really be “Urgent”!


Like when is going to make a difference......

There actually was / is an urgency on the shampeachment timing for the Dims.

Political acts NEVER happen in a vacuum. There are always other agendas, concerns and political maneuvering going on in the background.

There are several issues at play here but first and foremost is the Dims use of this for the 2020 elections. It is ALWAYS about power for the Left. How to get it and how to keep it at ANY cost.

Ten Months is an eternity in electoral politics so if the Dims pop their shampeachment cork too early, (as they just did), it's intended effect is vastly diminished by next Oct. / Nov.
If they pop it too late it's just seen by voters and played by Republicans as the unsavory, partisan political attack intended for the election that it really is.

After that there is the just released IG Horowitz report, the Durham investigation with possible coming criminal indictments and the looming threat of AG Barr's investigation - involvement in the Ukraine matter all of which will divert public attention from the shampeachment and focus on actual criminal activity by the Dims

Then there is the issue of the Senate rules for a shampeachment trial.

The Dims want desperately to have control over that process. They have a visceral fear of one or more Bidens being subpoenaed along with Mr. Ciaramella, (the "whistleblower"), and Adam Shift-for-brains, all of which will collapse their "Ukraine centered" shampeachment articles and further justify the President's actions as right and proper.

Hell, the Senate majority could even try to call Ukranian President, Volodymyr Zelensky (if he chose to cooperate), which could provide a very "tasty" conundrum for Dims as they have to choose between publically attacking a foreign leader live on U.S. television, or trying to be polite as he burns their Ukraine shampeachment theory to ashes.

What they want is a repeat performance of the clown show they put on in the House, limited to their select slate of faux "witnesses" to try to avoid that exposure.

So, Yes, when does matter a lot to them

My query should have been in sarcastic font.

I've said all along that this is and always has been about the 2020 elections.

Oh I knew that Ron. I just had some time today for a long winded post.

The one thing that always strikes me is how the left always forgets about the unintended consequences of their actions.

Being impulsive is an act based in emotion and as we know that's precisely how Leftists make their decisions and form their opinions.

This shampeachment is no different.

They're trying to add a new chapter to Trump's "bio"... the man who once pulled the strings that controlled the Miss Universe contest was elected President, and then staged a brand new international spectacle... the "Miss Conduct" pageant.

I was thinking about trying to work up something in the spirit of the season, starting with "T'was the night before Impeachment and all through the House..."

It's already been done... by the Republicans on the House Oversight Committee.

I believe we can all agree that President Clinton was Impeached and tried. He was also acquitted during the Senate trial, whether or not I agree with that verdict is irrelevant. The fact is, he was impeached.

Following that thought process, I would consider President Trump, simply awaiting trial.

It really doesn’t matter, this isn’t about anything but the 2020 election. We all know it whether we admit it or not.
