  • AND JONATHAN TURLEY, THE

  • DEMOCRAT APPEARED ON BEHALF OF

  • THE REPUBLICANS.

  • NOAH FELDMAN, FROM THE HARVARD

  • LAW SCHOOL, APPEARED BEFORE THE

  • HOUSE ON DECEMBER 4.

  • REMEMBER HIM?

  • WELL HE HAS WRITTEN, GERALDO, IN

  • BLOOMBERG TODAY, THAT BECAUSE

  • NANCY PELOSI HAS NOT PASSED THE

  • ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT TO THE

  • SENATE, THE PRESIDENT HAS NOT

  • BEEN IMPEACHED.

  • HE WRITES, MR. FELDMAN, IF THE

  • HOUSE DOES NOT COMMUNICATE IT'S

  • IMPEACHMENT TO THE SENATE, IT

  • HASN'T ACTUALLY IMPEACHED THE

  • PRESIDENT.

  • IF THE ARTICLES ARE NOT TRANSMIT

  • TED, TRUMP COULD

  • LEGITIMATELY SAY THAT HE WASN'T

  • TRULY IMPEACHED AT ALL.

  • SO, UNTIL NANCY PELOSI HITS "

  • SEND" HE'S NOT IMPEACHED

  • ACCORDING TO NOAH.

  • >> GERALDO: WELL PROFESSOR FEL

  • DMAN'S ARTICLE, IT'S IN THE

  • NEW YORK TIMES AS WELL AND BEING

  • WIDELY CIRCULATED AND IT REALLY

  • DOES APPEAR READING ARTICLE ONE

  • AND TWO IN CONJUNCTION, YOU KNOW

  • THE PROVISIONS HAVING TO DO WITH

  • IMPEACHMENT, THAT IMPEACHMENT IS

  • NOT YET RIGHT.

  • IT'S NOT IMPEACHMENT UNLESS AND

  • UNTIL THE HOUSE OF

  • REPRESENTATIVES AFTER THE VOTE

  • WHO WE HAVE HAD AFTER THE VOTE

  • BY A MAJORITY PASSES THE

  • ARTICLES ON TO THE SENATE, CARR

  • IED BY THE MANAGERS OF THE

  • PROPOSED PERSPECTIVE TRIAL IN

  • THE SENATE.

  • IN OTHER WORDS HERE YOU HAVE

  • IMPEACHMENT WHICH IS LIKE AN

  • INDICTMENT BUT AN INDICTMENT

  • NEVER DELIVERED TO THE SUSPECT,

  • OR TO THE TRIBUNAL, THAT IS

  • GOING TO LITIGATE IT, SO IT IS,

  • I BELIEVE, THAT PROFESSOR FELD

  • MAN IS RIGHT AND IT'S NOT

  • IMPEACHMENT YET.

  • NANCY PELOSI, WHO HAS BEEN

  • RUTHLESS AND BRILLIANT IN HER

  • RUTHLESSNESS IN MANAGING THIS

  • IMPEACHMENT WITH NO REPUBLICAN

  • VOTES WHATSOEVER, SHE RESISTED

  • IT BECAUSE SHE KNEW HOW TOUGH IT

  • WOULD BE, FINALLY SHE YIELDED TO

  • THE MOST RADICAL ELEMENTS IN HER

  • CAUCUS, SHE HAD THE VOTES, SHE

  • KEPT HER CAUCUS MORE OR LESS

  • TOGETHER, AND THAT I WAS VERY, I

  • WAS ADMIRING OF THAT.

  • SHE'S THE REAL TOUGH LADY AND

  • HIGHLY SKILLED AS A POLITICIAN,

  • BUT NOW THE PROCESS HAS TRAPPED

  • HER.

  • SHE WAS TRYING TO NEGOTIATE A

  • FULL BLOWN TRIAL WITH WITNESSES.

  • SHE WANTED TO DO HER BEST TO

  • UNDO THE APPARENT INEVITIBILITY

  • OF AN ACQUITTAL BY THE

  • REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN THE

  • SENATE BECAUSE THEY ARE THE

  • JURORS SO NANCY PELOSI TRYING

  • HER BEST TO GUM IT UP AND MAKE

  • IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR THE

  • PRESIDENT, WHO NOW APPEARS TO

  • HAVE AN EASY PATH TO ACQUITTAL

  • IN A REPUBLICAN-DOMINATED SENATE

  • SO SHE'S TRIED TO WITHHOLD,

  • SHE'S TRYING TO NEGOTIATE THE

  • TERMS, HAVE WITNESSES, CALL THE

  • PRESIDENT, THIS OR THAT, BUT THE

  • PROCESS AS PROFESSOR FELDMAN HAS
