There are many things to dislike\nabout this man. The recent statements about Rep. Dingell were just plain gross,\nunnecessary, uncalled for, and in extremely poor taste. I would expct a\nstatement like that to come from a drunk DJ. Not the POTUS! But no one\nquestions his intellect. He\u2019s very smart. Extremely intelligent. But recently\nthe American people saw the beginnings of a plan and are about to see the rest\nof the plan. And this plan will make Trump look not nearly as smart as he once\nlooked. Her name is Nancy. And she just said \u201ccheckmate!\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We really aren\u2019t giving this beautiful young woman enough credit for being the genius that she is. Think about it. She could start all of these impeachment hearings any time. But she waits until September 2019. Why? Well, she figured the vote would come right before the holiday break for the government. She was right. Then she figured once the vote took place in the House, obviously in favor of Democrats who hold the majority, that there\u2019s no way to beat the republican senate majority. And she\u2019s right again. So Ms. Genius knew she could just hold on to the articles of impeachment until after the election because 23 republican senator seats are up&nbsp;for election. Once they gain the majority of the senate, she comes forward with the articles to the democrat controlled senate for trial and subsequently removes the newly elected 2nd term president. It. Is. Genius! Brilliant! I\u2019m personally in awe of her brains. Not kidding. Obviously, i&#8217;m merely guessing at all of this, but this makes the most sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-389\" width=\"367\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-5.jpg 720w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-5-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-5-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 367px) 100vw, 367px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Upside:<\/strong> Impeachment is a process, not a vote. In order for impeachment to be reached, there has to be a vote. Then they have to have managers deliver and declare the articles of impeachment before the senate. At that point, he is then \u201cimpeached\u201d \u2026 or \u201caccused\u201d. The senate then holds a trial and eventually settles the debate on whether the accused is guilty of the charges against him. We\u2019re a long way from all of this. &nbsp;<br> <br><strong>Downside:<\/strong> with this plan, she has made it perfectly obvious that people don\u2019t matter. American people don\u2019t matter. Nothing matters more than winning in Politics. That\u2019s it. Regardless of who it steps on in the process. The American people, the constitution, doesn&#8217;t matter. If you&#8217;re in her way, you will be eliminated. And everyone gets to see this unfold. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Another\ndownside:<\/strong> the American people aren\u2019t going to take this lying down.\nThey\u2019re going to resist. This will get ugly before it gets better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-388\" width=\"405\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-4.jpg 780w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-4-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-4-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-4-768x431.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 405px) 100vw, 405px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Another downside: <\/strong>her colleagues aren\u2019t nearly as smart as she is. They cheered when impeachment was announced. She didn\u2019t. She pretended much better than they did. She waited until later to celebrate with her not-so-brilliant colleagues. Her colleagues also kept saying the reason they weren\u2019t giving the republicans their fair say at the hearing was because speed was of utmost importance. Pelosi didn\u2019t say that. Because she\u2019s smart. She already knew her plan that was devised in 2016. They weren\u2019t smart enough to figure all this out. So they kept saying \u201cspeed!\u201d And \u201cgot to get this done quickly!\u201d Then once they got the vote, the need for speed vanished. Amazing how that works. (Double standards usually preclude an unethical agenda\/motive). Now she\u2019s doing something that has never been done and certainly was never done during Clinton&#8217;s impeachment. Something that is grossly unconstitutional. She\u2019s withholding the articles of impeachment. She knows that there\u2019s really no designated time frame to release them. So she\u2019ll say that she\u2019s waiting until the republicans do exactly what she says. Which won\u2019t happen.&nbsp; And she knew that! The elephants are playing right into her pretty little brilliant hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390\" width=\"522\" height=\"292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-1.jpeg 678w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-1-350x197.jpeg 350w, https:\/\/tidbitsofaudacity.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/pelosi-1-300x169.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 522px) 100vw, 522px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>One day there\u2019s going to be a section of political science classes called \u201cThe Pelosi Effect\u201d where students have to devise a fool proof plan to win at ALL COST!
