So I was correct. They are following it, AND they have not voted to rescind it. But this isn't about the Senate at this point. It's about the House.
THEY HAVE NOT IMPEACHED TRUMP. Pelosi has screwed it up.
Did you not read? They haven't included Jefferson in their Senate manual since 1977.
It's also up to each chamber to determine if it is following it's own rules and that too is not reviewable.
It's only about the House if the Senate allows it to be about the House.
The Senate could make a statement tomorrow saying that they recognize the House's vote as an official impeachment of Trump and are setting the trial to begin Jan. 2, 2020. And there's not a dang thing the House or even SCOTUS can do about it. In fact, what could the House even attempt to do about it? Pass a resolution declaring that Trump has not actually been impeached and therefore there can be no trial? File a lawsuit with the courts declaring the same thing and ask for an injunction against a trial? You would have the House fighting to undo the impeachment and keep Trump in office.
So I'm guessing this was the whole point of discussion on talk radio yesterday afternoon and last night, since we have this onslaught of right wingers who want to somehow pretend that the vote to impeach didn't happen? You've taken your orange messiahs cue on habitual lying, saying the sky isn't blue. He's the 3rd President to be impeached. Get over it. He's not going to be removed, you'll still have his tweeting and insulting to denigrate the nations highest office for another year at least.
Folks, there is one and only one reason Pelosi is delaying the articles. She wants to see some polls on how people feel about the impeachment vote. Polls were starting to show growing support for Trump during the process. Now that it is over and done, maybe they will show a shift back. Or maybe they will accelerate the increase in Trump support. If the former, she can submit promptly. If the latter, she can kill them and say they weren't trying to remove Trump from office before the election but just making a statement of disapproval. Pelosi knows she and her party are not in a good position right now and is waiting in the hope that it will get better. In other words, she has lost her ability to read the people and doesn't know what to do.
I don't think Pelosi is going to just say never mind. She and many of the Dems realize their vulnerabilities in the upcoming elections.

Gaslighting is such an art form with these people.
Gaslighting is such an art form with these people.
Their entire media apparatus is built on it. These are the same fools who were sure Hillary Clinton would be in jail by now because Mark Levine or Michael Savage told them she would be. And they don't have the self awareness to look back at how stupid they were, they just stumble forward buying the same BS from the same people.
