Adam Schiff, ring master and pretentious potentate of the Congressional Circus of quasi-Impeachment hearings is being quietly promoted for higher office. Yes, really.
In the alternative universe of Leftist Democrats caught in the grip of Trump Derangement Syndrome, The Hill’s writer Scott Wong pens an unctuous ode to Schiff’s “rising star”.
But it is precisely Shiff’s sober demeanor and steady hand guiding the two-month impeachment investigation — including two weeks of televised public hearings — that have made him a national political figure, a household name and unlikely progressive rock star.
He has become a regular presence on the Sunday shows, delivering the party’s message on impeachment, and he recently received a standing ovation at the California Democratic Party convention in Long Beach.
And while the impeachment process is far from over — he and his committee are writing an impeachment report over the Thanksgiving recess — his colleagues on Capitol Hill are speculating how high the 59-year-old chairman can climb after his star turn in the Trump-Ukraine saga.
Progressive rock star? Star turn? Sober demeanor?
I’ve no clue what Wong has been drinking all these months, but it’s not the Schiff who has been obsessed with over-turning the 2016 election to the point of repeatedly lying about his knowledge of “direct evidence” of Trump collusion with Russia. Even after the Mueller report, Schiff refused to accept it. This man with the sober demeanor had a hissy fit when called on to resign his chairmanship over his lies.
Schiff’s steady hand held a gavel that he used to his own orgasmic glee – especially against GOP women.
Wong continues:
Some Democrats see him as the natural heir to 86-year-old Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.); others say the 19-year Southern California congressman is a House guy through and through and could one day run to succeed Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), his close ally. One of his House colleagues from the Golden State said she saw a president in the making as Schiff led the televised hearings these past two weeks.
“When we look at the characteristics of what we want to see in a president, it is somebody who is not going to lose composure because he’s been poked. And we’re seeing that on display from Adam Schiff every single day,” said the California Democratic lawmaker. “He’s not too vanilla. But I kind of want that now after Trump. We need boring; boring is good.”
Of course Democrats might want to run Schiff for President — the GOP, too. Just think of the memes that could be produced — President Schiffty from California could help yank back America on to the path of Make America San Francisco Today! You know, where illegals get a vote, the homeless unhoused are allowed to poop on the streets, property crime is ignored, but the really important stuff, like gender pronouns, is given top priority.
Maybe California deserves Schiff-for-brains as Senator, but I love my country too much to wish he be inflicted on the rest of you.

One has to marvel at the underlying institutional racism of the progressive media in promoting yet another cis-het old white male as leadership material.
But as for “rock star”, well, this is the political equivalent of a meaningless mild flirtation.
It’s akin to the high school girl shooting a bit of a wink and smile to some geek behind the counter, with absolutely no intention of any kind of relationship.
Schiff reminds me more of Louis XVI along with his fellow elitist nobles than anything else. Absolutely ignorant of the mood of the peasants, King Schiff goes forward with his inquisition.
I will be honest in saying that if he keeps this up, figuratively, heads will roll in 2020 in November.
The longer this sham investigation goes on the higher the chances of the democrats losing the house.
