Democrat Backs Off Trump Impeachment After Party Rejects Him

Michigan Democrat Rep. Shri Thanedar got shut down by his own party and stopped from pushing his Articles of Impeachment against President Donald Trump.

He announced on X on Wednesday that he would not go ahead with pushing for a vote on his impeachment plan.

“In the fifteen days since I filed seven articles of impeachment against President Trump, he has committed more impeachable offenses, most dangerously, accepting a $400 million private jet from Qatar, which even Republican Members of Congress have called wrong,” he said.

“So, after talking with many colleagues, I have decided not to force a vote on impeachment today. Instead, I will add to my articles of impeachment and continue to rally the support of both Democrats and Republicans to defend the Constitution with me,” the representative said.

“This is not about any one person or party; it is about defending America, our Constitution, and Rule of Law. I will continue to pursue all avenues to put this President on notice and hold him accountable for his many impeachable crimes,” he said.

Axios reported that some Democrats privately criticized the representative as being a “dumbs***” and “utterly selfish” for going forward with the impeachment. And it said that New York Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler received applause from fellow Democrats during a meeting after he said that the impeachment effort was “idiotic” and “horrible.”

Minority Leader and New York Democrat Rep. Hakeem Jeffries and Minority Whip and Massachusetts Democrat Rep.  Katherine Clark informed their fellow Democrats that they would vote to table the resolution, Punchbowl News reported.

President Trump mocked the most recent impeachment effort and Democrats in a post on X.

“The Democrats are really out of control. They have lost everything, especially their minds! These Radical Left Lunatics are into the ‘Impeachment thing’ again,” he said. “They have already got two ‘No Name,’ little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the ‘Impeachment’ of DONALD J. TRUMP around, for about the 20th time, even though they have no idea for what I would be Impeached.”
