The White House anticipates a Democratic House will vote to impeach President Trump – but that his opponents won’t be able to muster the 67 Senate votes needed to throw him out of office.
Trump advisors in and outside the White House have begun speculating about scenarios months before voters even go to the polls for November elections that will be critical to what comes next for the Trump presidency.
If Democrats do take control of the chamber – which would fit traditional off-year patterns even as their edge in generic polls has narrowed in recent weeks – a far greater level of oversight and scrutiny is a certainty.
Impeachment also could follow, even as House leaders urge caution in speaking about it.
‘If we lose the House, it’s a given that they’ll try to get a vote to impeach,’ an outside Trump advisor told the Washington Examiner.
White House advisors expect impeachment to prevail in the House, according to the report.
Although a Democratic House could use its majority to vote to impeach Trump, essentially charging him with a high crime or misdemeanor, his fate would be determined by the Senate, where essentially a trial would occur.
House minority leader Nancy Pelosi warned fellow lawmakers against their push for impeachment now, saying it could hurt the party’s chances of taking over.
‘I don’t think we should be talking about impeachment. I’ve been very clear right from the start,’ Pelosi told reporters last month.
‘On the political side I think it’s a gift to the Republicans,’ she said. ‘We want to talk about what they’re doing to undermine working families in our country and what we are doing to increase their payrolls and lower their costs.’
