Dr. Nathan Cogley – Why The Left Won’t Move To Impeach President Trump

The left’s lean toward Impeachment of President Trump and Nancy Pelosi’s spoken lack of support toward it, has become a topic of conversation on Capitol Hill.
Mrs. Pelosi waves off impeachment, setting a high bar, saying it’s “just not worth it” even as some on her left flank clamor to start proceedings.

Pelosi said in an interview with The Washington Post that “I’m not for impeachment” of Trump. “Unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country,” she said.

While she has made similar comments before, Pelosi is making clear to her caucus and to voters that Democrats will not move forward quickly with trying to remove Trump from office.

Nathaniel Terence Cogley, Ph.D., Interim Head of the Department of Government, Legal Studies, and Philosophy, and Assistant Professor of Political Science at Tarleton State University, joins Wendy to talk about the Democrats plan moving forward.
