Congressman Adam Schiff, chair of the House Intelligence Committee, said Sunday that while he believes that President Donald Trump has acted in ways that may merit impeachment, the process of removing the president from office is likely to be unsuccessful because of what Schiff dubbed a"cult" surrounding Trump's personality.
Appearing on ABC's This Week Sunday morning, Schiff tried to explain to host George Stephanopolous why he was among those high-ranking Democrats who were not stoking the impeachment flames. He continued:"We have to figure out in that context: Is this the right thing for the country, and I'm just not convinced — not yet — that's the case."
“We will build an ironclad case to act,” Pelosi said on Saturday. “President Trump will be held accountable for his actions. In the Congress, in the courts and in the court of public opinion, we will defend our democracy.”
Well if you think impeachment is unlikely, we should impeach you and Nancy. You disappoint me. We bust our ass in 2018 for you to slow walk? I don't think so
It is indeed a cult of personality. They exhibit their cowardice daily.
Necause the dems know and fear a CivilWar they wont win!
Shame that Nixon and Clinton hadn’t that kind of cult! I thought impeachment was a matter of law and not a matter of psychology.
So start the proceedings and make them own it. Enough with this 'they'll try to block, so why even try' garbage. Do your job.
That’s not how the law works.
How much longer does Schiff have before he gets caught up in his own lies?
Because Adam Schiff knows the results of this coup will end in Trumps re-election!
Also because there was no colusion

Schiff: Mueller should testify as his 'last duty' as special counselRobert Mueller's investigation may be complete, but House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff says the special counsel owes one final duty to the nation: congressional testimony. Mr. Mueller, The people DESERVE your public testimony. This isn't about Your Reputation. There are OTHER questions not covered in your report. Examples: 1. Did AG Barr interfere in your investigation? 2. Why didn't you indict OTHER conspirators? Anybody have any others? Your right Adam, force him to testify. Tomorrow would be good. Can’t wait to here how he new there was no collusion for over 15 months. I know you’ll ask that question, right? If you don’t, maybe Rep. Collins will. Or Mr Nunes. I don’t think you’ll ever investigate. 60 retweets!?!? LMAO

Schiff says Mueller has 1 more duty leftAdam Schiff says Mueller still has one more duty to the American people: testify before Congress Schiff is correct. Mueller must testify under oath before Congress and then field questions from the media too. Mueller believes himself to be above Congress, and his contempt for the news media is obvious to all. Oh please do. I can't wait to hear him answer questions from Jim Jordan.

Donald Trump's impeachment trial 'would be disposed of very quickly,' says Lindsey GrahamAny attempt by House Democrats to impeach President Donald Trump would likely be shot down by a short trial in the GOP-controlled Senate, suggested Senator Lindsey Graham. So much for congressional oversight. The Framers could not have predicted two, possibly three corrupt branches of government. Uh. Lindsey Graham is the traitor. Lindsey Graham's position in the Senate should be 'disposed of quickly' Trump should be impeached, convicted in the Senate, indicted criminally, convicted, and imprisoned.

Republican Justin Amash stands by position to start impeachment proceedingsMore than 800 people showed up to a town hall Tuesday night to both praise and berate the only Republican member of Congress who has called for impeachment proceedings against President Trump. Praise. Only Republican not believing the 'alternative facts' bullshit💩🤮 Hopefully there was a good spread of voters i.e., Republicans and Democrats in the audience, because that's what is needed. Lets have a free and open debate without Trumplicans shouting everyone down at the first opportunity, like at the rallies. Only then will you get somewhere A whole 800!

Republican warns Nancy Pelosi on impeachment: 'If you go after the king, you best get him'Republican CNN guest Rick Wilson misquoted a line from HBO's 'The Wire,' in which he warned Nancy Pelosi to go all-in on impeachment if she chooses to, because 'if you’re going to go after the king, you best get him.' If we don't go after him, we have lost our country. If we don't impeach THIS president, what the hell does the president have to do to be impeached? We either have integrity or we don't. Rick is a disgraced RINO.
