Unprecedented and unpatriotic.
Nancy Pelosi undermined the solemn duty of impeachment that a future House may have to undertake if there is something ACTUALLY wrong. The Left couldn’t even wait for the #UkraineTranscript before calling for a fact-free #TrumpImpeachment pic.twitter.com/uHwwjeBKJy

The 2020 Democrat’s precise words read as follows:
“I’ll tell you that my gut is that [President Trump intimidates] the average Republican in the Senate and the House. […] I have my doubts that any Republican, or very few, would vote against him. You know [and I know] what [Trump] will do: ‘I am vindicated! I am vindicated!’ And I think that is a fact [to take] into consideration.”
Sanders then proceeded to allege that the president’s behavior in office is “unconstitutional” and moreover expressed support for “a process” to take place.
The Reality about Impeachment
Despite yesterday’s impeachment inquiry announcement, there are still some realities which people need to know. First of all, in order to impeach this president, applicable votes must come from both the House and the Senate. The House has already voted on impeachment multiple times and failed. Even if impeachment made it to the Senate, two-thirds of the very red Senate would have to vote in favor.
