This was a base play and that’s it. It’s going to be a base election and Dems have no accomplishments, Mueller was a dud, and their slate of candidates are Meh.

So they have to deliver impeachment. It’s all they got or you have an apathetic base (see Romey)

But what a mess up by Pelosi. Now Trumps base is more united. Dems are even further exasperated and Biden is torched.

Prediction. She will be forced out as Speaker by the end of the year.

The terrorist loving Jihad Squad runs the Democrat party, and the Progressive left now. This is clear as day.

Hide your kids next, because soon these sick fricks are going to push their pedo tendencies on everyone as well.

You are dealing with mentally ill people.

The Democrat Party is firmly in Socialist/Communist hands now. The Squad is in control.

I disagree. This won’t stick to the Dems bc nothing does. Remember how riled up the base was after Kavanaugh? It’ll fade and the next YUGE controversy will be front and center


Until the media changes, nothing will matter bc the Dems get cover and they control the narrative. But I hope you’re right...

I actually think the opposite, and this has shown that if anything, she's a very skilled politician (which is probably a bad thing).

In other words, she has kept the impeachment possibility on the table to help appease her base, but has done little to nothing to move it from a possibility to a reality which would alienate a lot of potential voters as well.

Without a doubt

There was a hostile takeover of the Democrat party yesterday. They killed Nancy and Biden in one day.

Trump is going to have a field day with these new idiots.

stop with these idiotic predictions. Nobody in the House comes close to being able to oust Pelosi.

The problem is that she and other prominent Democrats, like Schumer, Nadler, and Schiff, have been threatened by the Justice Democrats to push forward with impeachment.

I don’t think she can hold them back anymore.

Legit question - Did you see anything nefarious in the transcript? It does kinda sound like he's urging the Ukrainian President to investigate Biden.

The Squad and their elders Warren and Sanders are the new Democratic Party.

Biden and Pelosi are toast

That may be true, but I think she's done about as good of a job as possible to keep it held back for as long as she has.

Not to mention, the longer she hold it back, the closer it gets to the election, which she can (and probably should) use as the opportunity to not only remove him, but allow the American people to decide.

I just don’t think the crazy base is gonna let them not impeach. They gave them an inch and now these people are gonna demand the whole world or 2020 will be an absolute disaster for them across the board all the way down to city council.
