Good point…
House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said on ABC’s “This Week” that the Republican Party “has turned itself into a cult of the president’s personality and is not likely to act consistent with its constitutional obligations” when it comes to the question of impeaching Trump.
“In terms of the impeachment process, it’s not mandated by the Constitution. We can avail ourselves of this when the president demonstrates acts that are high crimes or misdemeanors.
It is certainly true that much of his conduct qualifies for that, but at the same time we have to recognize the reality that one party, the Republican Party, has turned itself into a cult of the president’s personality and is not likely to act consistent with its constitutional obligations. And we have to figure out in that context is this the right thing for the country, and I’m just not convinced, not yet, that that’s the case.”
The big picture: Schiff said he and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had not reached the conclusion that “it’s best for the country to put us through an impeachment proceeding that we know is destined for failure in the Senate.” House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) said on CNN Sunday that he believes Trump will eventually be impeached, but that it’s first necessary to “educate the public” in order to ensure Congress has popular support….
Note….
House Speaker and most of us do NOT agree with House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) that Trump will be impeached….
