A group of House Democrats has come forward at the 11th hour to urge Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to withhold the two articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump that Democrats plan to vote on later today.

“The notion of impeaching Trump but holding the articles in the House has gained traction among some on the political left as a way of potentially forcing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) to conduct a trial on more favorable terms for Democrats,” The Washington Post reported. “And if no agreement is reached, some have argued, the trial could be delayed indefinitely, denying Trump an expected acquittal.”
