Gregg Jarrett: Pelosi seeks retaliation in Trump impeachment trial -- get ready for 'the sequel'
It is time to end the politics of revenge
By Gregg Jarrett | Fox NewsHere we go again. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi slowly and somberly walking an article of impeachment through the Capitol flanked by House managers giving their best impression of a funeral procession. Except this time, they’re wearing Covid masks.
Let’s call it "Impeachment: The Sequel." It is destined to be as pitiable as the original. Like a cheap movie franchise that Hollywood keeps exploiting, this sham version will be the equivalent of a box office dud.
Mugging for the cameras, Pelosi will probably mutter something about "making history," as she did before. Maybe she’ll again pass out souvenir signing pens like lollipops at a town carnival. It’s an insult to charades. Pelosi seeks retaliation masquerading as impeachment.
The first impeachment trial in the Senate a year ago was a baseless fiasco that ended in the easy acquittal of President Trump. Democrats did not come close to mustering the two-thirds majority votes required for conviction and removal from office. That predictable outcome rendered the entire exercise a colossal waste of time.
