Do you believe there are 17 Republican Senators willing to commit political suicide? If they vote to convict Trump, how do they win their next election without Trump voters? Do you really believe Democrat voters will vote for a Republican instead of the Democrat candidate? Mitch was just reelected for 6 more years and he will most likely retire at the end of those six years, so he has nothing to lose. But it's not the same for Republican Senators who are looking to continue their political careers. It also sounds as if Democrat Joe Manchin will not vote for conviction, so they might need 18 Republicans. Romney. Murkowsky, McConnell? They'll win no matter what they do. 17? No. But that's beside the point. The only president in US history to be twice impeached. NYAG will finish Trump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Republicans actually gained seats in the House and never lost one incumbent House race in the 2020 election. REALITY? You had all 3 branches 4 short years ago, and cut taxes for the rich.....now we pull the levers. Legislation will actually get done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
