I believe Nancy Pelosi has no intentions of sending the House’s Articles of Impeachment to the Senate for trial. Not now that it’s 2020, or ever, for that matter.
She has never had any such intentions. She explains that she is “convinced” Trump will not get a “fair” trial but rather would be exonerated by a majority Republican vote. This way, the House’s accusations will stand, unresolved, going in to the November presidential election.
This nonaction will also allow the Dems to point out that the Constitution needs to be revised to provide for a similar future event “when a rogue president is accompanied by a rogue leader of the Senate.”
While Pelosi’s cleverness bears the fingerprints of some even more Machiavellian parties, one must admit that she sure knows how to make lemonade!
