Schiff's career will not survive Trump's presidency.

Schiff may end up as the scapegoat, but watch out for him in 2024. He gained a lot of publicity and name recognition. It would not surprise me to see him run for President in 2024.

Looking at the 2020 dem candidates, it's obvious that whether a person runs or not depends more on that person's opinion of him/herself, than on realism, and it's obvious he thinks his schiff doesn't stink.

No one thought the GOP might do what the dems and the media wanted during Clinton's impeachment? No wonder the dems are losing. They aren't very bright.

quote:

In January 1999, then-Sen. Joe Biden argued strongly against the need to depose additional witnesses or seek new evidence in a memo sent to fellow Democrats ahead of President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial.

Biden cited historical precedents from impeachment cases going back to the establishment of the Senate and asserted “The Senate need not hold a ‘full-blown’ trial.

“The Senate may dismiss articles of impeachment without holding a full trial or taking new evidence. Put another way, the Constitution does not impose on the Senate the duty to hold a trial,” Biden wrote at the time.

The Delaware Democrat added later: “In a number of previous impeachment trials, the Senate has reached the judgment that its constitutional role as a sole trier of impeachments does not require it to take new evidence or hear live witness testimony.”

In 1999, Biden also said senators should take into account the impact drawing out the impeachment proceedings would have on the country.

It would be a dumb call. That dude is not POTUS material. Even aside from all of this treachery he's up to, he looks like a pencil necked pudwhacker. He does not inspire confidence one would expect from a President.

Plus, he sounds like a whiny bitch.

I absolutely agree with you. I also think that most (all?) the 2020 dem candidates running was a dumb call.

But what you and I believe is dumb is trumped by a potential candidate's opinion of him/herself.

Although it wasn't a pencil, Logan died by a stab wound in the neck with an ink pen.

Irony.
