Trump is 100% correct, there are no House demands or requests for anything to do with Trump's phone call.

Pelosi can, and should, hold a full House vote.
That would place Democrats in swing districts on record regarding impeachment.
Go ahead, make my day.

The House hasn't made any demands for anything on Trump's call or anyone to testify but the media keeps claiming Trump is refusing to cooperate with the House's demands.

It is solely a Democrat investigation - there are NO Republicans allowed to participate. There was NO vote for an investigation and their are four investigators - A democrat from San Francisco named Nancy Pelosi, a democrat from Los Angeles/Burbank, Adam Schiff, Jerry Nadler from New York and Elijah Cummings from Baltimore. They can not call this a House investigation.

Nothing in the Constitution says there has to be a vote, Tool. It is simply a tradition from the last two investigations.
As to the rest of your bullshit, Republicans are free to investigate Trump for impeachment. But instead of doing so, they are whining that the Democrats won't let them somehow.
What a bunch of pussies. They can't investigate without Democrats giving them permission first.

No, you are wrong.
It says the House.
Not merely a few members thereof, and we also have the precedent of how previous impeachments were done.
That said, I agree with Clown that Pelosi should charge ahead.

There is no constitutional requirement for there to be a vote to "formalize" an impeachment inquiry.
If there were a constitutional requirement then democrats would have voted already......

No, they wouldn't. Here comes a nuance, so buckle up.
If the full House votes, then Trump would have subpoena and other power. With just an inquiry, Pelosi and Schiff can lob insults without affording due process.
