What would it take for Pelosi to change her mind about Impeachment? [View all] BigmanPigman Jul 2019 OP

She needs to have many more House Dems supporting it. Right now she has 95. pnwmom Jul 2019 #1

Is the 95 number based on the planned impeachment vote of last week? Chemisse Jul 2019 #4

Yeah. But the last time there was a tally, for an impeachment inquiry, there were a dozen fewer. pnwmom Jul 2019 #5

Thanks. Yes there is that, along with Trump's backsliding on the 'send her back' rally cry. Chemisse Jul 2019 #7

Green's bill was actual articles of impeachment DeminPennswoods Jul 2019 #13

I can believe there are 100. Unfortunately, we need half the House -- 218 -- pnwmom Jul 2019 #15

I think the number will rise after Mueller testifies on Wed DeminPennswoods Jul 2019 #16

Currently 87 support starting an impeachment inquiry. BigmanPigman Jul 2019 #24

Right. But 95 just voted to impeach, and I'm assuming they would all also pnwmom Jul 2019 #25

I wondered about that last week. BigmanPigman Jul 2019 #28

That, and if it had a chance of conviction in the Senate still_one Jul 2019 #35

If she said she would back impeachment she would have more than enough votes. nt doc03 Jul 2019 #36

You don't know that. She has less than half of what she needs publicly supporting this now. n/t pnwmom Jul 2019 #37

You don't know that either nt doc03 Jul 2019 #38

You were the one making the positive claim, not me. pnwmom Jul 2019 #39

Or a rebellious GOP Senate. Chemisse Jul 2019 #6

Impeachment in the House is still their duty whether the Senate OliverQ Jul 2019 #10

Yep, that seems to get lost with all the noise. Bluepinky Jul 2019 #14

I am not sure there is a "duty" there SlogginThroughIt Jul 2019 #40

Trump would have to take a dump bluecollar2 Jul 2019 #3

The Speaker is in this for the win against trump - not an immediate 'hail Mary' shot. empedocles Jul 2019 #8

Agreed bluecollar2 Jul 2019 #20

it's not about Pelosi changing her mind. it's about the other house members supporting it and JI7 Jul 2019 #9

Why is this so hard for people to understand? StarfishSaver Jul 2019 #19

And why would her caucus change their vote if their constituents do not especially empedocles Jul 2019 #21

I can only imagine the outrage we'd be subjected to StarfishSaver Jul 2019 #23

Maybe if he sent a dick pic to her daughter??? It's a mystery. Vinca Jul 2019 #11

Maybe if he actually shot someone on 5th Ave. she would consider it Luciferous Jul 2019 #12

The majority of Democrats to disagree with her... kentuck Jul 2019 #17

Simple. Show her a list of 218 people who will vote for it. MineralMan Jul 2019 #18

A failed impeachment vote, the sooner the better, is trump's best hope empedocles Jul 2019 #22

He'd declare himself innocent. But worse, he'd declare the Dems impotent. nt Hekate Jul 2019 #31

Four GOP Senators. LakeArenal Jul 2019 #26
