The Trump administration indicated Sunday that it is not very worried about what they believe is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's political gamesmanship and that she will ultimately have to pass on the articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate for trial.
The Trump administration indicated Sunday that it is not very worried about what they believe is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's political gamesmanship and that she will ultimately have to pass on the articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate for trial.
"I think her position is really untenable," Marc Short, chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, told "Fox News Sunday."
"She will yield, there's no way she can hold this position," he later predicted.
Pelosi and most of the other Democrats in the House approved two articles of impeachment against President Trump last week for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, yet they have sat on those articles instead of delivering them to the Senate for a trial. Pelosi has claimed that she is waiting for the Republican-controlled Senate to set the process for the trial before she appoints impeachment managers.
Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., pushes for the ability to issue subpoenas for additional witnesses and documents. Click here for more.
