Nadler says 'we cannot rely on an election' to oust Trump, as impeachment markup heats up Fox News, Dec 11, 2019
The House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday night began the "markup" process for the two articles of impeachment against President Trump that they have settled on, barreling toward a final floor vote even as moderate Democrats have floated the idea of backing down in favor of a censure resolution.
Almost immediately, the evening proceedings broke out into fiery disagreement, as the panel's top Democrat declared that it would be unsafe to wait until the 2020 election to remove Trump, while the ranking Republican slammed Democrats for attacking Ukraine's leader because he undercut their case against Trump.
"We cannot rely on an election to solve our problems, when the president threatens the very integrity of that election," House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., said in his opening statement, claiming that Trump's discussions with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about Joe and Hunter Biden's lucrative dealings in the country, and the White House's temporary withholding of military aid to Ukraine, constituted an "urgent" threat to national security.

Seriously? On the same day the Senate holds hearings on the coup plot Nonads is impeaching the President for threatening the integrity of elections?
As one of Trump's 63 million voters, I am deeply insulted that the dems believe it is okay, to remove the leader that my fellow voters and I, helped elect.
I don't smell, I am educated and intelligent.
And to my wy of thinking, Trump has not commited an impeachable offense.
Besides staying happy, alive,....Re-elcting Trump is among my great hopes for the coming year.
