That sounds to me like a guarantee that Trump will do it https://t.co/CDNKAB7Jd4 — PolitiTweet.org

This may seem far out, but it’s something Manafort, Cohen, Flynn, and others are learning firsthand from their proximity to the supermassive black hole at the core of one Donald J. Trump https://t.co/5jUd6OK3tX — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s a powerful argument against the conventional wisdom that the failed impeachment effort to remove Clinton proves the House shouldn’t impeach Trump unless the Senate is poised to convict and remove him. The truth: It’s far more complex than that. https://t.co/68tyBPffpo — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Read @peterbakernyt’s fine overview of the debate between those like @CassSunstein who say the House must ignore what the Senate might do and those like @JoshuaMatz8 and me who argue the House must give the odds of Senate acquittal some weight but no veto https://t.co/Maqhaa3SJR — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

True — but @JoshuaMatz8 and I also argue in our book’s epilogue that, because “the House holds the ‘sole Power of Impeachment’” it “cannot properly abdicate that ‘sole Power’ by giving the upper chamber an effective veto.” Failure comes in many flavors. One is inaction. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

The epilogue to the new paperback version of my book with @JoshuaMatz8 also explains, though, that if “investigations into Trump produce concrete proof of grievous wrongdoing, a decision to leave him in office might cause far more harm than a decision to impeach.” — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

How pathetic to have a president whose main reason to run in the first place was to become as rich as he’d long pretended to be — and whose main reason to seek re-election is to stay out of jail! @RepAdamSchiff has this right. Sadly. https://t.co/3h9WsLkzsF — PolitiTweet.org

There’s not much daylight between my view of when impeachment would be worth it even with Senate stonewalling and the views of @SpeakerPelosi and @JRubinBlogger. So let’s just investigate the whole rotten mess full speed ahead and see what we discover and how the public reacts. — PolitiTweet.org

“The president’s singular governing innovation has been to engage in grift so baroque, so galactically expansive, that trying to comprehend it all at once tests the limit of the human mind.” https://t.co/pUdLiwMRa0 — PolitiTweet.org

This deeply insightful essay by @genebsperling is a must read, but don’t rush through it. It’s a keeper. https://t.co/6NR5FqfmjD — PolitiTweet.org

.@SpeakerPelosi is smart to insist that the House investigations are not just a pretext for impeaching Trump — but would be wrong to suggest (by insisting on “bipartisan” support) that McConnell’s Senate gets to decide whether and when the evidence warrants action by the House. — PolitiTweet.org

The WStJ said I favor courtpacking. As I said on CNN, I don’t. https://t.co/refl524rF3 — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Speaker Pelosi wouldn’t disagree with @ElizabethDrewOH. She said she’d favor impeachment if “there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan.” The issue, with all due respect, is what to do if the evidence is compelling and overwhelming but GOP STILL won’t budge. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

I’m pleased that @CarlosLozadaWP sees how Pelosi’s view echoes my TO END A PRESIDENCY, coauthored by @JoshuaMatz8, but a wrinkle is added by the DOJ policy of shielding sitting presidents from indictment. I’ll discuss that with @KatyTurNBC on MSNBC in the 2 pm EST hour tomorrow. — PolitiTweet.org

Laurence Tribe @tribelaw

Whether and when it’s worth it depends partly on the danger of NOT impeaching a president whose guilt has become clear just because the Senate seems too beholden to the president to remove him. Check out my book with @JoshuaMatz8 — PolitiTweet.org

When the estimable & bestselling @VickyPJWard spends two years & devotes 220 interviews on a subject, you can be sure she has dug deeper and uncovered more land mines and buried treasures than anybody else. Can’t wait to read her #KushnerInc! — PolitiTweet.org

I can’t wait to read “Kushner, Inc” by the great journalist and writer @VickyPJWard, whose “The Liar’s Ball” I loved. Ward has been digging deep into the Jared/Ivanka phenomenon longer than anyone else. Her book comes out March 19. Watch this space. — PolitiTweet.org
