House Intelligence Committee chairman Adam Schiff (D-California) said Sunday on ‘Meet the Press’ that he found testimony by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller before his committee on Wednesday to be “chilling.”

So, he’s going to immediately move forward on impeaching the president, right?
Wrong.
EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Adam Schiff says there is "no simple answer" to impeachment #MTP @RepAdamSchiff: "I worry … about taking impeachment case to trial, losing that case, having the president acquitted and having an adjudication that this conduct is not impeachable." pic.twitter.com/9Z1BMMsDFS

It’s the same song we heard from his colleague, House Judiciary Committee chairman Jerry Nadler (D-New York).
This makes ZERO SENSE: Looks like Jerry Nadler just outed House Democrats’ impeachment fantasy for what it REALLY is https://t.co/wqI14FWiQe

And while Schiff claims he found Mueller’s testimony to be “chilling,” new polls indicate that the American people were largely unaffected by it.
POLL: Dems who thought Mueller testimony would cause ‘groundswell of support for impeachment’ need to think again https://t.co/BXppMZkKxH

Schiff is the same Rep. who promised his base and everyone who would listen for months that he had a smoking gun on impeachment.
Amen.
I contend that most Democrats, never mind the country at large, do not support impeachment. Democrats must move beyond impeachment and focus on their vision for America. An anti-Trump message alone will not win in 2020. https://t.co/nvXo00cfVT

Democrat leadership has allowed the fringe of their party to use impeachment hysteria to drive it to this point.
Now they are paying the price.
