Nancy Pelosi took to Twitter this morning making more excuses for why
she isn’t sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate:
The House cannot choose our impeachment managers until we
know what sort of trial the Senate will conduct.
President Trump blocked his own witnesses and documents from
the House, and from the American people, on phony complaints
about the House process. What is his excuse now?

This is malarkey and has nothing to do with why she hasn’t chosen her impeachment managers. Her delay is all about trying to give Schumer
leverage with McConnell to get a long trial with witnesses in order to
harm Trump as much as possible. Also she’s hoping a long Senate trial
would help people forget her own unfair star-chamber House process and
perhaps even add legitimacy to it.
Her excuses didn’t go over well with many on Twitter:
This Constitutional outrage by @SpeakerPelosi needs to end.
She is trying to run the Senate and deny President
@realDonaldTrump his day in court after the House’s sham
impeachment process.

Prosecutors with strong evidence are eager to put their
case on trial.
This is clearly the opposite of that ??

Why can't you? You can appoint as many as you want, which
seems like you could plan on any possibility. Prosecutors
are generally assigned randomly and they do just fine.

This whole thing is bizarre.
House Dems pushed through the fastest, weakest impeachment
in history. Now Pelosi refuses to send it to the Senate,
arguing McConnell should strengthen her shoddy case & bring
“fairness” to her utterly unfair process.
Bizarre & reeks of politics.

Stop playing games, @SpeakerPelosi. All we want is for
@realDonaldTrump to be treated like Clinton was.
It may seem foreign to Pelosi, but the Senate will follow
the precedent established from prior impeachments. We don’t
craft constitutional processes based on partisan madness.

She knows it’s a dud.

You can't polish a turd, Nancy. It doesn't matter who you
send when you don't have a case.
