As soon as the House impeaches President Donald Trump, the Senate is in theory required to immediately begin a trial. But for a multitude of reasons, both strategic and mundane, senators say they are aiming to reach an agreement to take a breather and come back for the trial in January.Despite bipartisan hopes of not letting impeachment drag on, absolutely no one in the Senate seems to want to sacrifice their Christmas or New Year’s.
“Impeachment is a huge issue. And I don’t think we should rush into it,” said Sen. Dianne Feinstein . | Alex Brandon/AP Photo And canceling a holiday recess for one of the most extraordinary events in the Senate’s history is not popular in any corner of the chamber. Plus there’s precedent for a delay: The Senate similarly postponed December action on former President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial until January the next year.
Not true Yahoo. Democrats in house will impeach before Christmas. Senate will start trail in January to end by end of February! Senate will not impeach Trump!
No! Work work. It’s what hard working Americans do every day. Holiday season too!!!
LETS GO.. impeach the MF. NOW.
Impeachment & one Independent's view. What I saw in Congress was worthy of an Emmy in the 'Best Comedy' catalog. The Senate will be an action film. Can't wait!!!!!
I'd rather have the gift if impeaching this President! How about you?
You guys get paid way too much money to stop doing this countries most pressing event of all time. A historical event in our nation life. Could determine if America democracy remains intact.
Or maybe indefinitely?
Maybe they should think about that , when many Americans are forced to work during the holidays to make ends meet , No sympathy do your jobs
Would be cool to announce verdict the same day a SOTU speech
This circus has a predictable outcome: A purely partisan impeachment in House Exonerated in Senate Biden only one damaged Trump wins re-election
Why in the world would they want to postpone this impeachment process? Because the president wants them to is not a good enough reason.
No postponement, I want a MerryImpeachMas!!
Trump will enter into 2020, the year of his reelection campaign, as an impeached president. The longer it takes to exonerate him of all charges, the longer the idea of him as an impeached president will take hold and push public opinion toward removal into the 50s and maybe 60s
January of what year?
BS... make them all have to stay through Christmas break....”sorry guys and gals, gotta work.. no month off for you”..
No problem. But the house will vote to impeach first
Good idea. Americans need a break from this saga before and during the holidays, which are meant to bring families together to celebrate in peace and harmony.
It’s McConnell’s call - Schumer can’t force anything.
Fire them all.
The potential harm to our country is too great for us to wait. Our elections are coming up soon. As long as this president is an office we are in extreme peril of losing our democracy.
Nope. Every day that goes by is another chance for trump to kill more people
Do not postpone the impeachment. Don't the President and his cohorts any room for any evil maneuvering and grand standing. They will seek any reason, any conspiracy to derail the lawful intent of the impeachment process. Trump and his cronies cannot be trusted.
False piety.
Give me a fucking break!
Raise your hand if you care what a United States Senator prefers in terms of their work schedule.
That's will give the impeachment time to in fest in the voters and an end to Trump and the family.
Does that mean I get coal in my stocking now?
Cowards!
i guess you could say it’s bipartisan ?
That could work. Iowa caucus coming up though; we have FIVE senators still running for president. Don’t know how they would feel about that.
Nope. Americans are entitled to a MerryImpeachmas
Awww what we feeling all YOU’ll TIDE. 🤣😊😂😂
No truce get them while they hurt & numb don't get them a chance to recuperate !!!!!!
