Now what? Here are some fun options- including charging Pelosi with extortion

[The Purge]

Last night Donald Trump was impeached in an entirely partisan vote on two articles neither of which contained a crime. This morning millions of democrats awoke to learn, shockingly disappointed, that Trump is still their President and likely will be until 2024.

Last night was touted as being very somber. Nancy Pelosi dressed in black for the occasion. democrats frequently invoked children, the deceased and "God" in the name of impeachment.

Here Rashida Tlaib, appropriately somber.



The CNN and Washington Post staff held a somber impeachment vigil:

Pelosi had to try to keep a lid on the celebration in the House



For his part, Trump was completely nonplussed by the event, saying "It doesn't really feel like we're being impeached."



It was interesting watching a split screen of the impeachment vote and Trump rally. There was no loss of enthusiasm during the only completely partisan impeachment in history.

democrats have repeatedly accused Trump of wanting to be a dictator yet they seem to believe they have not a speaker, but a queen. She is making demands of the Senate as a condition of delivering the articles of impeachment to the Senate. For some reason she believes herself to be superior to both the President and the Senate.

This is called Irony 101.

After the railroading of the House GOP this strikes me as kind of audacious. Withholding the articles from the Senate may seem like a slick political move, but it could also lead to some untoward consequences.

For instance, Mitch McConnell could appeal to the Judiciary to dismiss the entire impeachment proceedings. There are even more entertaining options.

Pelosi could be held in Contempt of Congress.

Pelosi could be charged with Obstruction of Congress.

Best of all, the argument could be made that Pelosi is attempting to extort the GOP Senate to get something of value to her. That means charges of extortion and abuse of power.

McConnell has a few very good options regarding the articles of impeachment:
1. He can pass a Senate Rule that if the articles are not forwarded to the senate within ___days from being passed in the House then the articles will not be accepted. The senate schedule has time budgeted for a trial, and if the window is missed through maladministration by the speaker then the House can re-vote and forward the articles timely.
2. McConnell can schedule the trial for the least favorable time period for the democrat presidential candidates according to the primary schedule.
3. McConnell can schedule the trial AFTER Durham releases the findings of his investigation and the senate can decide if that warrants calling witnesses or not.
