Excerpt:
It’s all about the bluff – or so it appears – as the House of Representatives declines to officially vote on pursuing formal impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Armed with yet another in a series of smoking guns – this time a shadowy whistleblower and a nothingburger call to Ukraine – the Dems apparently cannot come to a consensus to move forward.
After a brief, closeted Democratic Caucus meeting, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) emerged with Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) to announce:
“There is no requirement that we have a vote. So at this time, we will not be having a vote.”
President Trump has repeatedly called the continual threat of impeachment “illegitimate,” daring the Dems to go on record, which may have some Members of Congress afraid to do battle with the president as the election nears. Pundits, strategists, and speculators are laying odds that there aren’t the votes – or perhaps the evidence – to back up top Democrats’ impeachment overtures. Suspicions are that this drama is simply a way to keep the anti-Trump drumbeat alive as Dems attempt to push an electoral string up a hill toward 2020. Some seat holders are in vulnerable positions in dominant red states and may be hedging bets until there is valid evidence.
