Censure
is a group vote strongly reprimanding a president for wrongful behavior.
When a House of Congress votes to censure a president, it’s a big deal. It's only been done once in our history.
Here's why I think a censure of Trump is on the horizon.

She gave the Senate the chance to conduct a fair trial. They conducted a sham. A strongly worded censure allows Pelosi to:
Publicize Trump’s crimes
publish the evidence
remind everyone that the Senate is in on the coverup, and can’t be trusted to conduct a fair trial.

McConnell gambled on people forgetting about this by the election. They won't forget if each time Pelosi gets new evidence, she publishes it with the statement that she can't give it to the Senate because they will just conduct another sham trial and coverup. 8/

Before the Senate trial, Stephanopoulos asked Pelosi her next move. She said “Let’s see what the Senate does. The ball is in their court now.” https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/week-transcript-12-20-house-speaker-nancy-pelosi/story?id=68227362 … (She doesn't tip her hand) I heard it as a dare. 9/

Think of what’s happening as chess game being played between Pelosi and McConnell. He controls the Senate. But she has stronger pieces on the board. (To continue my metaphor, King Trump has only pawns.) She has evidence, and she's getting more. 10/

It’s clear this Senate is never going to remove this president. It’s all about November 2020. Pelosi can always say that if McConnell wants to assure America that this time he'll conduct a fair trial they'll consider impeaching instead. . . 11/

. . . but they won't put the nation through the trauma of another sham trial. The well-oiled Trump-FOX-GOP propaganda loop will dismiss it as partisan—but they don't get to follow up a censure with an acquittal. No exoneration. 12/

Trump can add one more item to the list of things he has in common with Andrew Jackson: He can be one of two presidents formally censured by the House of Representatives. And Pelosi gets the last word before the election. /end (I may add comments)pic.twitter.com/3SIAHgkPof

I don't understand the Chief Justice behavior. Its a sham trial and we all know that. Trumps lawyers are busy interpreting the Constitution to there liking and not a word from Justice Roberts. Could Roberts have drank from the Kool-aid!!

The guy who legalized influence peddling in Citizens United is not really someone to expect a lot of integrity from.

I hope she does impeach him again. There will be enough new evidence soon (Bolton's & others' testimony in the House, on pain of inherent contempt penalties, and OMB emails today; Trump's taxes by June). And since the R's complained that Article 1 didn't specify "bribery", 1/

ironically, they can still impeach him for that in the future. Once the House has his financial records, the jig will be up, exposing his total indebtedness to Putin, his money laundering, tax fraud and low net worth. Impeach, and whatever the Senate does then, he'll be toast. 2/
