quote:

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi followed her signing of the articles of impeachment by declaring the process is not actually about “proof” against President Donald Trump.


quote:

“So, in any case, it’s not a question of saying proof, it says what allegations have been made,” she finally concluded.

Isn't the trial about proof? Looks like you are confused about what impeachment means.

I don't think her Alzheimer's medication is working correctly.

Crazy old rambling fool.

He will be impeached FOR EV ER

So again she admits they voted to impeach without the evidence to back it and now decide the Senate trial should just be a fishing expedition for their next scheme? That’ll play well with the public, Nance

You will likely get eleventy billion downvotes for that but it is correct.

The impeachment is about deciding if an allegation is credible, the trial decides if it truth or rather guilt or innocence.

So you’re on record in favor of impeaching presidents on allegations alone without evidence? Looks like you are the one confused on the fact that Impeachment is supposed to provide the evidence, and the trial determines the validity of the accusation with the evidence provided.

The trial isn’t supposed to be where you Look for evidence, thats the impeachment.

How are you supposed to do that without evidence?

You dont indict someone to find out if an allegation is credible lmao you do that before you impeach..thats what pre-impeachment hearings, inquiries, and subpoenas are for. The trial is presenting and making judgement on the evidence, not discovering evidence.

My allegation is that Nancy is drunk 24/7 and has killed at least 10 young Asian immigrants.

There you go, that is an important allegation and she should be removed from office.

An Impeachment in search of evidence or a crime? WOW! Surely Patrick Henry would be proud.

no. the House must present a prosecutable case. Its not the Senate's job to search for evidence.

Think about what you are saying.
