Peebles Corporation founder Don Peebles served twice on former President Barack Obama’s National Finance Committee, but he is no fan of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s leadership.
He told Newsweek, before the failed impeachment hearings that his party ran a “big risk” so close to an election “going through an impeachment process” and found it “highly unlikely to be successful.”
He told Fox and Friends at that time, “I believe what Trump is being accused of is like running a stop sign, and you don’t put someone to death for running a stop sign. Maybe you give him a ticket and give him a summons to show up in court, but you don’t impeach the president for this kind of nonsense.”
Peebles told the Fox and Friends crew that Pelosi was allowing House Democrats to “look like sore losers” and their actions were “going to hurt the Democratic Party.”
Now that President Trump has been acquitted and impeachment is yesterday’s news, Pebble’s warning appears to be coming true. President Trump’s approval rating is at an all-time high and less than 30% of those surveyed think Democrats should allow Pelosi to remain leader of the House.
Dritan Nesho CEO of HarrisX said, “Democrats are split on whether to keep Nancy Pelosi as leader and independents … want someone else …”
