Warns. That it might end in acquittal. Like Acquittal is a bad thing for the American people.

These Leftist loons are horrible people. Just horrible quasi human turds

quote:

In an exclusive interview with "Meet the Press," Schiff said “there is great weight” to the argument that impeaching Trump is an imperative in order to take a stand that the allegations he’s accused of — mainly, obstruction of justice — cannot be tolerated by Congress. But he said a failed impeachment fight could end up sending the wrong message.

“I worry equally about the message of taking an impeachment case to trial, losing that case, having the president acquitted, and then having an adjudication that this conduct is not impeachable,” he said.

"The jury I'm most worried about, not the Senate because I think that's a preordained conclusion, is the American people. Can we make the case to the American people? I want to make sure that's true before we go down that path because it's going to occupy a year of the nation's time."

Can you obstruct over a false narrative?

In the Dem’s eyes Trump obstructed what they call justice when he employed an attorney.

Any trial can end in acquittal. What message is he truly sending guilty until proven innocent?

They may not get the votes in the House to send it to a trial in the Senate...how many Dems in marginal seats want to commit political suicide

And we will be reminded that acquittal =/= exoneration

Exactly. They don't have that big of a majority so it's not like they can have a number of vulnerable members vote against it.

It will go nowhere.

Liddle Adam knows Durham indictments are just a matter of time.

It’s painfully obvious the Mueller investigation was built on a foundation of lies. No surprise it’s crumbling.

How stupid does he think the democrat base is to believe that there is a smoking gun in grand jury documents-- that cannot be released according to the laws and regulations?

The grand jury material is already tainted. Weissmann even lied to set up Manafort, much less Flynn, Carter, Papa, Cohen, Stone- and hid exculpatory evidence

What are they going to see? Footnotes of who called CNN to tip them of the arrest of Manafort and Stone at gun point at dawn? CIA assets that were made to be Russian agents? The $10,000 marked bills they gave to Papa? The 302's of their falsified bullshite? Evidence of them shaking down people threatening Papa's wife to compose?

An impeachment trial does not take a year Schiff is insane.

Schiff is just stating the obvious, that republicans are not going to uphold their Constitutional duties to hold the president responsible for the crimes confirmed in the Mueller report.

Six hours of testimony the other day and the pubs never questioned the accuracy of anything contained in the report that showed the president broke the law, they just wanted to complain about how the investigation started in the first place, just try to get the president off on a technicality and not a valid one at that.

Nothing is more clear about this than that the pubs are not interested in holding Trump accountable, they are interested in their best chance to keep their jobs.


Moscow Mitch even shoots down a bill to make Congress more accountable to report foreign interference in their campaigns.


When do we just change the name from the republican party to the russian party?

Why should they? Mueller won't even do it.

Do you realize, even a little, how unhinged you sound?

Your intellectual dishonesty is boundless. Please read up on that bill and why it was shot down. It included numerous troubling parts that would have violated the tenth amendment.

I noticed that the new talking point of your pathetic progressive marxist democrats is that Turtle is a Russian Agent.

Obama gives our enemies plane loads of money and gold, it was the dems that colluded with Russia; and all is fine nothing to see here. But Turtle is a KGB asset.

You seem to have a lot of trouble following the plot even though Mueller has said a hundred times that he was not allowed to indict the president and that his job was to present the evidence to Congress and have them do their jobs as it related to the president.

Mueller went so far to say that he couldn't exonerate the president, and from that we should be able to take a hint what he meant by that.


If that hint is not good enough, then read the 10 separate acts of obstruction of justice laid out in the report and also Mueller's testimony that encrypted messages by members of Trump's campaign and lies that were told and witness tampering interfered with his ability to prosecute conspiracy.
