Mitch McConnell: Pelosi Withholding Impeachment Papers Is ‘Absurd’

‘I can’t imagine what purpose is served by her holding on to the papers’

EXCERPT:

KILMEADE: "So the delay is because it seems as though the speaker says I won’t relay these articles until Mitch tells me the rules of the Senate. She goes on to say this in 'Politico'. Fear is never a word used with me,  and the question was, is she fearful of you. You should know right away I’m never afraid and I’m rarely surprised. So she’s not afraid of you and she’s rarely surprised and we know she’s politically very astute so my sense is perhaps she’s waiting for more evidence or more witnesses to become available."
MCCONNELL: "I have no idea. It seems to me a rather absurd position to say after you’ve impeached the president you won’t send the papers over to the Senate for the impeachment trial, mandated by the Constitution."
