There is no house inquiry. If they want to start one, they can pass a resolution in the house authorizing one like has happened every time before.....or they can just admit that there never was one and go straight to voting on articles of impeachment.

The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the sole power to impeach an official, and it makes the Senate the sole court for impeachment trials.


The House's Role
The House brings impeachment charges against federal officials as part of its oversight and investigatory responsibilities. Individual Members of the House can introduce impeachment resolutions like ordinary bills,or the House could initiate proceedings by passing a resolution authorizing an inquiry. The Committee on the Judiciary ordinarily has jurisdiction over impeachments, but special committees investigated charges before the Judiciary Committee was created in 1813. The committee then chooses whether to pursue articles of impeachment against the accused official and report them to the full House.


U.S. Constitution, Article II, section 4

Nancy knows what she is doing. Trump not.

That's correct. But no impeachment resolution was passed, so it is as nothing has happened. Nancy has no clue what can of worms she opened: Biden is done and Trump will come out on top.

They are only required to follow the rules.

It's telling how much they fear a legitimate process.
I don't think the Dems fear a legitimate process at all. They're just onto Trump and know that no matter what hoops they jump through, he won't care and will continue to deflect, deny, obstruct. He has exhibited nothing but a blatant disregard for the Constitution and rule of law. I doubt he would start complying no matter what they did. And they know that better than I do.

More and more people are seeing Trump for the obstructionist he is. To think he would cooperate if a vote were taken is just laughable.
