138. She said impeachment is off the table (present tense)
I'm picking on you because you keep saying she said something SHE DID NOT SAY. She did not say the constitution is invalid or didn't apply. But why even bother telling you this? You obviously know what she didn't say, yet you turn her position into a straw man to say that she is against the constitution. That is worthless and slanderous. And you should be ashamed for saying it.

Everyone knows that the position on impeachment can change what with multiple, multifaceted investigations being led by chairmen appointed by her in the House of Representatives. The "talk" of impeachment will not start until the groundwork reveals it to be necessary by first moving the public to the extent that it will likely pass.

It will not likely pass yet. Pelosi is playing this right. She is right to wait for the groundswell to occur. Republicans in 1998 led the impeachment and it failed. The public pushed for it in 1974 after quite a lot of time and evidence was revealed that showed it was necessary. Facing the foregone conclusion of removal, the president resigned.
