Trump stew

Whether or not it was Nancy Pelosi's intention, her withholding of the Articles over Christmas and New Year seems inspired. Although Trump's mindless boosters at Fox and in the GOP claim, without evidence [sic], that Trump is completely untroubled by his impeachment, his ranting letter to the Speaker and the tweetstorm of mindless vitriol he has spewed over the last few days suggest otherwise. Trump seems angry probably because he is not in control of the situation and because he has been bested by a powerful woman. Perhaps Pelosi thought that letting him stew for a few weeks might knock him completely off his rocker and generate some more impeachable material in the process. Even if it doesn't, it was certainly worth a try; and it keeps the Never-Trumpers energised. Not too shabby.
