BWAHAHA! Trump goes to Little Lindsey for a timeline on his exoneration, and Lindsey's firin' blanks



https://www.rawstory.com/2019/12/lindsey-graham-is-enraged-pelosi-wont-let-senate-hold-a-sham-trial/

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) was “enraged” according to CNN reporter Lauren Fox, that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi won’t allow the Senate to have the Articles of Impeachment without an agreement to the rules of the trial.

“Graham enraged Pelosi would hold back articles of impeachment, saying it’s not her job to dictate the Senate trial. Trump called him this morning to asked what in the world was going on up on the hill. Graham told Trump he didn’t know,” Fox tweeted.

I believe so. They have a bill or two to finish up, and then they're outa there. Nothing will happen until they return.

Let Trump and the GOOPers sweat it out.

Give some of the Garland crap back to the source.

In fact, maybe we should wait until after the election to let the electorate decide when to have the Senate trial.

senators win their primaries and don't have a challenger, they will vote their conscience, if they have one.

All GOP senators are corrupt sociopaths interested only in furthering their own hold on power even if it means bondage to a vile creature like Trump. But you knew that, so I'm just teasing'.

To be sure that the Congressional recess would start immediately after the vote.

When it comes to brinksmanship, Mitch has met his superior in Nancy Pelosi.

And to be entirely honest I was one of those were not overjoyed when she was elected to that position. I didn't hate her or anything but just thought a maybe younger person would be best suited for that job. Boy, has she proven me wrong almost daily since then. This is one smart and fearless individual and has turned me into a FAN! You rock, Ms. Pelosoi
