Nope, sounds like they aren’t sending it to the senate. If they don’t, they can continue to use impeachment as a shield.  Now they get to say “political retribution for impeachment” when the hammer drops.  If they would have sent the impeachment through and it got shot down they wouldn’t be able to do that.  They also steal away the senates and GOPs chance of a counter argument to their nonsense impeachment.  They had an endgame.    They are leaving political persecution on the table as a defense with this impeachment hoax.
