Nuclear peace? Then why did you elect a demented old war monger fool like Sleepy?Maintaining order, and nuclear peace is a better route to stop the impeached president trump from doing something really stupid, rather than risk exposing the corruption a serious impeachment could reveal.Pelosi didn't want to impeach trump the first time, but public pressure was too great. So, she made softball charges to enable Moscow Mitch to make an acquittal a cinch.
The corruption in our nation's capital is rampant, so any impeachment proceeding must be handled carefully to avoid too much exposure for too many participants.
Pelosi is one of many who wants no part of another impeachment, regardless of the level of trump's criminality.
Agreed, of course she didn't want to the first time! She was very clear about that, but the power struggle forced her into it --- the Squad and all that. It was stupid and devalued a lot of credibility they need now.
I can't tell what is going on now. You HAVE to move fast with this sort of big thing (look how fast the Battle of Capitol Hill moved!) or people will stop it. But she isn't moving fast: she's talking about next week. I suspect since she is also talking with the military -- and I think that's good -- that she may be lining up ducks in case she does want to do it suddenly, in case of a wild move by Trump. Just my speculation.
That's why Bill Clinton was impeached for lying to Congress about the Lewinsky-delivered hummer he received in the Oval Office. It placated the RWNJs of that era, but protected everyone involved in Washington's crooked politics.
