(This is why Pelosi is scared) -- A must read!

Very good explanation of the process.

[EXTRAORDINARILY INFORMATIVE – What every American should know]

ONE MAN'S OPINION –

I’ve been studying politics and political history for the past 30 years. My specialty is U.S. Presidents. That said, I hope that the House of Representatives impeaches Trump.

Let me tell you what will happen next.

1. The House can pass articles of impeachment over the objections of the Republicans, and refer to the Senate for trial.

2. The Senate will conduct a trial. There will be a vote, and the Republicans will vote unanimously, along with a small number of Democrats, to not convict the President. Legally, it will all be over at that point.

3. However, during the trial, and this is what no one is thinking about right now, the President's attorneys will have the right to subpoena and question ANYONE THAT THEY WANT.. That is different than the special counsel investigation, which was very one-sided. So, during the impeachment trial, we will be hearing testimony from James Comey, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Bruce Ohr, Glenn Simpson, Donna Brazille, Eric Holder, Loretta Lynch, Christopher Steele, Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, James Clapper, and a whole host of other participants in this whole sordid affair and the ensuing coverup activities.

A lot of dirt will be dug up; a lot of truth will be unveiled. Finger pointing will occur. Deals will start being made, and suddenly, a lot of Democrats will start being charged and going to prison. All this, because, remember, the President's team will now, for the first time, have the RIGHT to question all of these people under oath - and they will turn on each other. That’s already starting.

4. Lastly, one more thing will happen – the Senate will not convict the President. Nothing will happen to Trump. Most Americans are clueless about political processes, the law, and the Constitution. Most Americans believe that being impeached results in removal from office. They don't understand that phase 2 is a trial in and by the Senate, where he has zero chance of conviction. Remember, the Senate is controlled by Republicans; they will determine what testimony is allowed -- and **everything** will be allowed, including DNC collusion with the Clinton campaign to fix the election in favor of Hillary, the creation of the Trump dossier, the cover-up, and destruction of emails that very likely included incriminating information. They’ll incriminate each other for lying to the FISA court, for spying and wiretapping the Trump campaign, and for colluding with foreign political actors, especially George Soros.

After the Senate declines to convict the President, we will have an election, and Trump will win. It will be a backlash against democrat petulance, temper tantrums, hypocrisy, and dishonesty. Even minorities will vote for Trump, because, for the first time, they will see that Democrats have spent 2+ years focused on maintaining their own power, and not doing anything at all about black murders in Chicago, homelessness, opioids, and other important issues that are actually killing people.

And, we will spend the following four years listening to politicians and pundits claim that the whole impeachment was rigged somehow.

This is spot-on! I am hoping for impeachment too. Nancy Pelosi seems to be the only Democrat who is aware of how bad this will turn out for them. She has got to fight her own party over it. I'll sit back and enjoy the show.

For the House to proceed with Impeachment will deflect attention away from the REAL business of the Democrats, which is the 2020 Election Campaign. Impeachment chatter will drown out the messages of those running for Presidential endorsement. Don’t like Trump, think he deserves impeachment; well, it is easier to defeat him in 2020. By the way, what makes his endorsement such a Republican certainty.

Just like you thought it was easy to beat Trump in 2016 right?

Steven Seward Loc: Cleveland, Ohio

What does that last sentence mean?

John_F Loc: Minneapolis, MN

2020 is not 2016 - the electorate, especially in the swing States, are very much more aware of exactly what Trump is. There is a record of performance and the Democrats have many top-drawer candidates to choose from. My favorite is Amy Klobuchar.

Steven Seward Loc: Cleveland, Ohio

Was that supposed to be the answer to my question?

The delegates to the Republican convention will come from the months-earlier local precinct caucuses. Yes, there will be Super Delegates, but they will not outnumber the elected delegates. The Trump certainty rhetoric is really intended to discourage sensible Republicans from attending the caucuses and running for delegate.

An impeachment will not sway many votes in either direction.
Liberals will vote for liberals even if it means certain death to them, and as the Geico commercial states, that is what they do.
