Pelosi Impeachment Inquiry

Discussion in 'Politics' started by Big AAPL, Sep 24, 2019.

  1. Which would require the RNC delegates to auto vote for him. except they do not have to.

    The RNC committee rules are clear for example, that if a republican candidate for president dies while still the nominee, that the nomination falls to the Convention or to a special convention of the state RNC representatives to vote on it. Not sure that a vacancy created by impeachment would be any different.

    Alright. My view there. Done.

    what I mean is that it would be tantamount to auto replace. No one would be able to muster any support. Pence would be the nominee as legacy without question. --It won't come up though.

    Your standards are extremely low. We already knew that though.

    Don't worry. If the House does impeach, the whistleblower will be testifying in the Senate along with the Bidens, Brennan, etc.

    In your imaginary world.

    Speaking of boring, as much as @Buy1Sell2 is boring, probably named after his dad, maybe a Brent? and always tells people his Rolex is real by the way, he is a trader of sorts. You don't have that saving grace.

  10. Yep.

    That part is going to work out beautiful. All the stuff coming out of Horowitz Two and Durham will be taken up in the Senate which will be even harder on them than if there were not impeachment in progress. Otherwise they would all be running to the courts for this motion and that motion to withhold this witness and that witness- but if the Senate is calling witnesses pursuant to its direct powers under the impeachment clause the courts are going to show maximum deference to the Senate. You wont have all this bullshit where you want to call a witness but can't get Adam Schiff to agree to it, or the Committee votes to subpoena someone but Jeff Sessions and Rod Rosenstein wont take it into court. Yuk.

    The other thing is that - although the Senate's role as a jury is used as an analogy it is an imperfect analogy in some aspects. The Chief Justice services as the Presiding Judge but he is really just a figurehead facilitator to help the process. He can rule on motions but the full senate can vote to overrule him. Jurors can't do that in the regular court system. And jurors cannot introduce motions to dismiss or to call witnesses or to extend a trial or to wrap up a trial or to hold witnesses in contempt, etc. etc. - but Senators sitting as jurors can.

    And as discussed there is no anonymity guaranteed to the whistlespy either in or out of an impeachment process. None. No guaranty at all.

    And if it is not positively determined that the current suspected spy is the whistleblower, well then, all the more reason call him in before the Senate to work him over to help figure that out.

    GIDDY FRIGGING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BETTER THAN SEX!!!
