MORE (D-Calif.) holding on to the impeachment articles is "dangerous" for the country.

Grisham told Fox News’s “Fox & Friends Weekend” that she did not “see any positives” in Pelosi withholding of the articles from the Senate after the House passed them last week.

“I mean, this is dangerous for our country,” she said. “And I think the American people know that. So I think there are no — there is nothing good about anything with this process, let alone her holding on to things.”

“And she knows that when it gets over to the Senate, there will be actual evidence introduced and actual witnesses that will show even more that this president did nothing wrong,” she said. “So now she's just going to hold on to these things. It's like she's taken her toys and gone home.”

Grisham added that the White House is hoping for a quick Senate trial but is not expecting that right now.

“It looks like the House Democrats have thrown our country into chaos for absolutely no reason,” she said.

The Senate will try Trump in January after the House passed two articles of impeachment against him last week. Pelosi has delayed passing along the articles to the Senate, saying that Senate leaders first need to meet to determine the rules for the trial and whether there will be witnesses.

Senate Democrats are requesting additional witnesses after the White House blocked several key administration witnesses from testifying in front of the House. Republicans argue the Democrats should have ensured they had a stronger case before moving to the Senate.
