This links into the @TeamPelosi move to say the “UNLESS” statement. Media and most tweeps focused on the “he’s not worth it.” I heard, loud and clear, the “UNLESS.”
Here’s the full quote:
“Impeachment is so divisive to the country that UNLESS there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country, and he’s just not worth it.”
“Impeachment is so divisive to the country that UNLESS there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country, and he’s just not worth it.”
Damn near 100% of media spun off the coda of that sentence as the sound bite, and ignored the spicy central message. The “UNLESS” was a shot across the bow.
The “compelling, overwhelming, bipartisan” case for impeachment is in the Mueller Report, and it’s why Trumpistan is absolutely throwing mama under the train to keep it secret from us. Impeachment, once the report is in the hands of Congress, is a certainty. Nancy told us.
So as an aside, one of you T-shirt artsy types needs to sketch up an “UNLESS” piece with Nancy’s red coat pic underneath, and have it ready to roll out when the House res drops. @TeamPelosi itself might want to consider it. (LOL tips to paypal shockratees)
