Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsWould Nancy Pelosi send Articles to Senate before SOTU speech by Trump?
And give Trump a national platform to crow about how he has been acquitted and exonerated?
Or would she prefer that Trump still be impeached but not yet tried in the Senate, when he makes his speech to the nation?
Or do you believe this is nothing they have thought about?

I would get angry but I believe putin has real bad days in store for us ahead so I am trying to reserve my energy.

(111,089 posts)I think she will eventually send the Articles over, but I believe circumstances will have changed when she sends them over. Also, I believe she thinks if she can get 4 or 5 Republicans to agree to witnesses, then she would consider that a victory. She is a realist. She does not anticipate enough Senators will vote for conviction and removal. A victory would be if she got a simple majority to convict. That is about the best scenario that Democrats could hope for.

(16,926 posts)Nice bait - you don't really believe she (they) haven't "game-planned" this whole thing out, do you?
I am convinced that she is playing a brilliant poker game, knowing that she's holding a hand that has a "slim-to-none" chance of winning, but making the fools sweat their asses off and being so stupid as to show more evidence of how guilty they all are.
I think it would be SO GOOD if they have NOT sent the articles before the SOTU. I have this little vision of IQ45 totally exploding right there in front of America - for all to see!
