Pelosi is right.

I believe Pelosi is right because what is happening now is far worse than giving djt something to campaign on. These court cases and the charges slowly dripping out is like a slow death to him and his campaign. Trump is pissed because he wants us to begin impeachment so he can say, “oh those mean awful dems tried and failed”. Pelosi is way smarter than trump and always will be. When the financials come out, the sh** will really hit the fan.

Never mind the rest of our slow deaths by drip drip drip. The destruction of Americas psyche. All about him, and how the gop will react. Also, Im sick and tired of the small measures (translate to...wait til the election. An election process EVERYONE admits, was infilterated by the russians.) bc we have an election coming "in a few years'. I have to go to the grocery store TODAY. I have to put gas in the car TODAY, I can't afford a wsher/dryer, storm doors TODAY. Glad the 1/4 million dollar earners can wait it out. A lot of us can't. That's why we hired who we have now to represent us. The nightmare continues.

I am convinced that sooner or later we will witness Trump's "Colonel Jessup Moment", where he launches into a spittle flecked outburst of uncontrolled rage and actually boasts of his criminal deeds as if they are something to be proud of.

8. The drip, drip, drip method is acceptable, as long as Pelosi continues to scale up the rhetoric

to match the rolling disclosures.

And she is right. He is perpetuating a cover-up. A massive one that the Republicans are aiding and abetting. When they went after Clinton, he had a number of conservative Dems who remained mum and stayed on the sidelines, not taking sides. The Republicans, on the other hand, are fully on board with Trump's cover-up and legislatively doing what they can to help protect him.

what evil lurks under all the data they're sifting through. Nothing from the Mueller Report, and nothing Trump can get a heads-up on, unless a committee member spills.

Her plan is going to work.
Waiting for a while worked.
Trump going off like this is part of the plan.
Pelosi is not new to the "Game of Politics" ..but Donald Trump is new and stupid in that game.

Further, Donald Trump thinks he is very smart in the game of politics, which makes him even stupider in that game. Stupider because he always acts on his own impulses, and doesn't often seek advise from those who have lots of experience in the game of "politics."

As we watch the show, it seems clear that Donald Trump has been beaten by a ..."Democratic Woman". (something I do not think he likes)
