Some Dem chairmen have changed tune on Trump impeachment
By Cristina Marcos - 04/26/19 06:00 AM EDT

House Democratic chairmen who cast votes in favor of impeaching President Trump while Republicans controlled the chamber now say it’s too soon to hit the gas on starting impeachment proceedings.

The senior Democratic lawmakers, who voted in favor of impeachment articles from Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) in the last Congress, are largely toeing their leadership’s line of caution, saying committees should move forward with investigations of Trump. 

The committee leaders who voted in favor of Green's impeachment articles in 2017 and 2018 either once or both times include Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel (N.Y.), Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (Miss.), Rules Committee Chairman Jim McGovern (Mass.), Science Committee Chairwoman Eddie Bernice Johnson (Texas), Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Frank Pallone Jr. (N.J.), Small Business Committee Chairwoman Nydia Velázquez (N.Y.) and Natural Resources Committee Chairman Raúl Grijalva (Ariz.).

Maybe someone up there has some political instincts to actually realize impeachment of a President completely exonerated by a two-year long investigation while in a roaring economy may not be in their best interests.

Oh, please. They were never going to Impeach Trump, they just wanted to drag it out as long as they could.

How about in an under-average economy like we have today?
