Even her own Expert Witness on Impeachment is saying Nazi Pelousy created this clusterfuck.
Jonathan Turley: Pelosi 'played into' McConnell's hands, 'destroyed' her own case for impeachment
Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley laid out a sweeping indictment of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., arguing that her impeachment strategy backfired and gave Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., the upper hand.
"The delay now seems largely driven by a desire to preserve the image of Pelosi as a master strategist despite a blunder of the first order," Turley wrote in a column titled, "Pelosi's Blunder: How the House Destroyed its Own Case for Impeachment."
His comments came as Pelosi prepared to transmit articles of impeachment to the Senate, roughly a month after the House approved them. She initially withheld them in an apparent attempt to draw concessions from McConnell. On Wednesday she announced the seven lawmakers who will serve as impeachment managers to prosecute the case against the president at his Senate trial.
"There was no reason why Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell would make concessions to get an impeachment that he loathed," Turley wrote.
Turley similarly suggested that Pelosi pushed impeachment out of "vanity" and would pay a "high price" for doing so.

Speaker Pelosi's statement that "time has been our friend" is bizarre. The new evidence and witnesses could have been part of the record with actual testimony and discovery by the House. Instead, she did nothing for 4 weeks and hoped for the tide to bring flotsam wreckage.

The presser seems entirely structured to defend Pelosi as a master strategist on impeachment despite every indication to the contrary. The rushed impeachment was a blunder of the first order but this seems more about the House members than the House case. https://jonathanturley.org/2020/01/14/pelosis-blunder-how-the-house-destroyed-its-own-case-for-impeachment/ …
