President Donald Trump slammed the impeachment process, which has been stalled by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on Monday. He referred to it as a “con game” by Democrats in order to boost their election chances. Too bad for them, NOTHING can help their chances at this point. They have shown their hand!
The president tweeted, “The Impeachment Hoax, just a continuation of the Witch Hunt which started even before I won the Election, must end quickly. Read the Transcripts, see the Ukrainian President’s strong statement, NO PRESSURE - get this done. It is a con game by the Dems to help with the Election!“

He added, “Congress & the President should not be wasting their time and energy on a continuation of the totally partisan Impeachment Hoax when we have so many important matters pending. 196 to ZERO was the Republican House vote, & we got 3 Dems. This was not what the Founders had in mind!“

He’s right. They should not be wasting their time on something that would have already been resolved and acquitted if ol Nancy would have sent the articles of impeachment on over to the Senate for a trial already.
Breitbart reports:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) indicated that he would continue the ordinary business of the Senate until Pelosi sent the articles of impeachment.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Sunday that Pelosi would likely “maximize” sending the articles to the Senate until they obtained more evidence, witness, and documents against the president.
Republican Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) has proposed that the Senate dismiss the articles of impeachment if Pelosi refuses to act on them.
“In real world, if prosecution doesn’t proceed with case, it gets dismissed,” Hawley noted, “So on Monday, I will introduce measure to dismiss this bogus impeachment for lack of prosecution.”
