What makes you think a Republican Senate would vote to convict a Republican president?

Even with Mueller's investigation, regardless of what it concludes, I think Republicans in the Senate have already decided they won't impeach him. They'll let him serve out his term, knowing they've already properly fucked the country for the recycled shit sandwich they've been pulling since the Southern Strategy was implemented. Let Trump lose gracefully to the next Democrat, the next Democratic president will spend the first 2 years of his/her administration cleaning up the mess of the Trump administration, then they'll get blamed for the eventual economic downturn created by Trump and the Republican congress, then people will blame Democrats, then they'll elect more Republicans in 2022 because Democrats held control under the economic slowdown.. Rinse, recycle, repeat.
that why we need new leadership in the house..same old, same old has got to stop..having nancy is having hillary = establishment.

The Speaker of the United States House of Representatives is the leader of the United States House of Representatives. They are elected by the current members of the House and the person with the most votes becomes Speaker. The current Speaker of the House is Republican Paul Ryan of Wisconsin.

Trump supports Pelosi for speaker because he knows how unpopular she is. He said if Democrats won't vote for her for leadership, he'll rally Republicans in the house to support her.

You have to be an idiot to support Pelosi for speaker, she will kneecap the Democratic agenda before it ever has a chance to start. She's already committed to her pay-go bullshit that effectively ends the possibility of a medicare for all bill, one of the most popular policy positions in the country, regardless of political affiliation.

Politicians like Pelosi and Schumer have had their chance, they've failed. Numbers don't lie. It's time for someone like Barbara Lee and Sherrod Brown to take over leadership of the house and senate and time for people like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to retire. If you don't support progressives in leadership positions over failed dinosaurs, you're not an actual progressive. If you support Donald Trump's picks for Democratic leadership, you're not listening to the progressive base.

I think the only way Pelosi will win is with Republican support. More than enough Democrats in the house have signed on in opposition. She doesn't have the Democratic votes.

Back on topic:

Trump is a blithering idiot. All he has to do to keep reporters out of the white house is NOT call a press conference.

Barbara Lee should be the next speaker of the house
Cult of Sanders are so authoritarian. They just demand and expect people to act. Like children, they are.

Do you know who SHOULD be the speaker of the House?

The one who gets the most votes from members of the House Democratic Caucus. They represent the people of their districts and are the ones the electorate empowered to decide. Not Cult of Sanders.

Trump supports Pelosi as speaker

I wonder why?

Pelosi doesn't have the Democratic votes in the House, if she wins, she'll need Republicans to vote for her
This has to be one of the most moronic things you have ever said. It shows your total ignorance of politics. We will remind you of it in January. Until then, be a good little padawan and just 'bate in the corner.

Hey, you've been really quiet about answering my questions about how many Republican votes Pelosi needs to be Speaker. Why you so afraid? You even quoted Wikipedia to back up your masterly understanding of politics.

Don't be shy. We need your superior intellectual force to guide us.
