WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump complained Saturday about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s delayed transmission of the articles of impeachment to the Senate, which may delay a trial in the GOP-controlled chamber.

“It’s so unfair,” Trump said, days after he was impeached by the House, as he spoke at a conservative student conference organized by the group Turning Point USA. “They are violating the Constitution,” he added.

Pelosi has refused so far to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate, in part to provide more leverage to Democrats in that chamber as they seek to negotiate the rules for the trial proceedings. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Democratic leader Chuck Schumer remain at an impasse over whether there will be new witnesses and testimony in the trial.

Still, Trump is expected to be acquitted of both charges in the Senate, where Republicans have the majority, in what will be only the third presidential impeachment trial in U.S. history. Proceedings are expected to begin in January.

[rurallib]

3. twist in the wind, Donny!

[RKP5637]

4. Kick him out. Let New York lock him up!!! n/t

[fleabiscuit]

5. There is a way...

Perhaps Speaker Pelosi should name them the Merrick Garland articles of impeachment and hold them for 293 days.

[MyOwnPeace]

17. GREAT idea!

After all, shouldn't the American people have the right to decide who should be serving in all government positions next year before anything this important is decided?
I wonder if McTurtle even realized that he's been kicked in the balls by Madam Speaker?

[bluevoter4life]

31. Learned something new

Didn't think McConnell had any balls.

[pnwmom]

6. Santa didn't come for DT this Christmas, with the Sham Trial

and Sham Exoneration he put on his Xmas list.

Instead, thanks to Nancy Pelosi, Santa left him 2 heavy Articles of Impeachment Coal.

[safeinOhio]

7. Nancy has him by

the short hairs.

[stopbush]

8. Yes, billionaires who inherited their wealth are treated so unfairly.

[napi21]

9. Dumb ass! The House is on vacation unil January. Even if Nance hadn's said anything about holding

The articles, they wouldn't have been sent until Congress comes back after the Holidays. You're bitchin about nothing AGAIN! Talk to your bud Mittens and tell him to get an agreement with Chuck.

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. Such a big crybaby.

[Grokenstein]

11. Unlike countless innocent children, Donny Boy

...you won't be spending Christmas in a filthy cage, deprived of decent care and humane conditions. So stop whining about "unfair." Eat a fresh bag of shit and roll around in a grease fire.

Karma is coming for you and your family and your toadies and your party.

[MyOwnPeace]

18. Excellent point!

We really do need to keep those "caged kids" out in front of ANYTHING that the big baby dares to say about "fair!"

GAWD, he's such a pathetic horse's ass!

[Baked Potato]

12. Looks like he's wafting a fart to the kids

Poor dears.

[TygrBright]

13. ::koff:: Merrick ::koff:: Garland... n/t

[ancianita]

14. Miller and AP reporters can try to frame this "Still, Trump is expected to be acquitted of both

charges in the Senate" all they want to.

But We The People know journalistic hacks will NOT be able to start THAT media horse race.

So they can report and amplify Trump rallies and sympathy all they want.

But it's ORGANIZED BULLSHIT.

[DallasNE]

15. But Pelosi Is Brilliant

Just today it was released that OMB told the DOD that the hold on military aid was to remain in place just 91 minutes after the July 25, 2019 Zelensky/Trump phone call ended without a pledge by Zelensky to start an investigation into the Biden's. Slowing things down to allow more devastating revelations to come forward is brilliant. You go girl.

This also shows why more witnesses need to be called as the picture is not yet complete.

[COLGATE4]

16. Trump wouldn't know the Constitution

if it climbed out of its display case, jumped up and bit him on his rather large ass.

[MyOwnPeace]

20. And yet ANOTHER great point!

For IQ45 to ever complain about something "violating" the Constitution?

F - U, Donnie!!!!!!!!!

[sakabatou]

19. Trump has another temper-tantrum

[slumcamper]

21. She hasn't "REFUSED" jack-squat! She has CHOSEN--and for good reason. n/t

[Pachamama]

27. +100000

Exactly

[Aussie105]

22. So which part of the Constitution

is Trump referring to when he says 'Not Fair!'?
(Inquiring minds want to know, scholars of the Constitution, please advise!)

Or is he ignorant of the Constitution, and using it as a weapon to justify himself in front of a crowd that is equally ignorant of the Constitution?

Gosh! I just realised Evangelicals do the same thing, but use the Bible instead!

[flibbitygiblets]

23. Suddenly he cares about the constition. And is wrong on the facts about it, as usual.

[keithbvadu2]

24. What's the hurry, Donald*? Moscow Mitch still has lots of legislation that he is holding back from

What's the hurry, Donald*? Moscow Mitch still has lots of legislation that he is holding back from voting on.

[rpannier]

25. Trump slams 'unfair' Pelosi delay, rallies crazies, bigots and gullibles

There... fixed the title

[RDANGELO]

26. This means that it is working.

Trump is the worst poker face in the world.

[Botany]

28. "It's so unfair," Trump

Like hiring somebody to do so work and then filing a bankruptcy so you don't have to
pay for the work or the materials which causes the person or business that Trump hired
to lose 10s of thousands of $s.

[olddad65]

29. Poor little fella. Those witch hunters just won't leave him alone.

Where is his Daddy Vladdy when he needs a hug.

[duforsure]

30. He's so predictable

Everyone's unfair to him , everyone's a liar , everyone's corrupt, everyone's against him, and he always plays the victim card whining how unfair he's being treated now, when it's all lies and another act from trump. He is the most corrupt person we've ever had in our government thanks to putin , and now they've blackmailed and bribed republicans and compromised them into protecting putin;s puppet. It;s only a matter of time before they're all exposed, and then shown as co-conspirators. As he gets closer o hetting exposed more he'll escalate his threats , and eventually he'll threaten all Americans openly , and with much worse actions against us all.

[LiberalLovinLug]

32. They have the gall to call us "snowflakes"

Or we get "triggered" easily.



Never seen such a group of whiners and babies.

[Paladin]

33. trump is Pelosi's b----.

That is all.

[Mc Mike]

34. 'It's so unfair', der Blubbrinfuhrer blubbered.

Professional victim, world champeen whiner. Such a 'strong man'.

[mdbl]

35. Trump: OK conservative dumbasses, please protect my criminality

Also please excuse my treasonous behavior by my cavorting with foreign adversaries. Just pretend none of this happened, or is still happening. If you conservative senators don't go along i'll get on twitter and insult you all night! I will also veto all of your regressive legislation, which I really care nothing about but will hide behind if you do what I need.
