It’s no secret that the Democrats ultimate goal is to impeach Donald Trump.
The left is manipulating every level of power at their disposal to delegitimize his election and remove him from office.
And Nancy Pelosi just said five words about impeaching Trump that put everyone on edge.
Democrat Al Green used a privileged motion to force a vote on his articles of impeachment against Trump.
Green’s articles of impeachment included the usual laundry list of Democrat complaints against the President.
He even included ridiculous items such as Trump speaking up for patriotic Americans and blasting the NFL for allowing players to spit on the memories of dead veterans by kneeling for the national anthem.
But Green’s motion was crushed by a 356-58 vote on the House floor.
Politico reports:
“The motion to sideline the measure — killing the effort — was approved 364-58, with four Democrats voting present.
The vote was forced by Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), who introduced articles of impeachment describing Trump as a bigot who incites hate and has demeaned the presidency.
“Donald John Trump, by causing such harm to the society of the United States is unfit to be president and warrants impeachment, trial and removal from office,” Green said on the House floor as he introduced the articles.
But Green, a seven-term, Houston-area lawmaker, said his conscience compelled him to push forward with the measure, even though he acknowledged he was unlikely to succeed.”
But even more shocking was Nancy Pelosi’s reaction.
She said the five words Democrats did not want to hear.
USA Today reports:
“Instead of focusing on articles of impeachment, Pelosi and Hoyer urged individuals to let the investigations led by congressional committees and special counsel Robert Mueller to continue.
“Now is not the time to consider articles of impeachment,” they said.
But while the Democratic leaders don’t support pushing for the president’s impeachment now, there is disagreement among their ranks. On Wednesday, 58 Democrats voted to move Rep. Green’s resolution forward.”
Pelosi’s statement will surely infuriate their liberal base.
She is trying to slow walk the idea of impeachment because if conservative voters catch a whiff of their plans to try and remove Trump if they win the midterms, it could motivate GOP voters to turn out and deny Democrats control of Congress.
