Donald Trump had a plan to declare himself vindicated, but Speaker Pelosi is blowing all of that up by delaying the impeachment trial.
CNN’s Boris Sanchez reported, “The president wants to expedite this process. He’s frustrated and angry over being impeached and now the senate trial he’s been asking for may be delayed. The White House strategy is stunted by Nancy Pelosi holding back the articles of impeachment. The president has been asking allies what is she doing? There’s a question about whether Pat Cipollone should lead the president’s defense. The president asking allies what they think of him. Some allies are concerned he may not give the president the TV moments he’s looking for. The president wants a show.”
