If he withheld the money that means Ukraine didn’t get it
If there was quid pro Joe that means Biden was investigated

Meanwhile has Slo Joe ever presented any evidence in his conspiracy theory thar the Ukrainian prosecutor was corrupt?

“He did it, he shouldn’t have done it”

What an idiot! Looking into corruption of the prior VP is something you shouldn’t do? What garbage!

The only “take” is that this is a total fake a total sham they were looking to impeach this president for the crime of winning the election and is a pitiful excuse for a Congress that it even went this far

The wrong people are being impeached the ones who’ve done substantial harm to this country the ones that haven’t put millions of people back to work and that don’t have Americans as the top priority

EVERYONE knew that President Trump withheld aid until investigations were done.....except the Ukranians.

According to Alexander, the House impeachment team proved President Donald Trump withheld more than $300 million in military aid to Ukraine as a means of forcing Ukrainian officials to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter, for corruption

Uh, no Lamar. They proved nothing. Their witnesses testifed on the record in the house that they were not direct witnesses to this. And, Lamar, the aid was not "withheld" since it was delivered.

Thank God we will be rid of your shilling self-serving RINO ways. Tennessee is winning under Trump and you are bitter.

Thanks for your good vote Senator Alexander, now go away, and enjoy your retirement.

Alexander is just walking the tightrope. He announces that he has bought into the dems charges, but doesn’t think they are really impeachable. A true example of a spineless worm.

No he didn’t. He wanted to to be a media whore and be on both sides. It an utter ridiculous factually erroneous position.

He should LOOK at the evidence. Hearsay, rumor and guessing are NOT evidence.

Well, once you start down the road of investigating corruption in DC you have no idea where it will end, but probably nowhere good. /s/

Alexander is a retiring GOP Senator from a red state. There is no “tightrope to walk.” He’s taking a cheap shot at POTUS and the 60 million people that elected him on his way out the door.

Murkoskie did not. So Dems only got Romney and Collins

Collins at least has the excuse she is running for re-election in a blue state. Romney has none

I think he makes a good point about the distinction between a political sin and a crime.

I can buy the Democrat argument Trump shouldn’t have done it and yet reject their conclusion it requires tossing him out of office.

The President is a flawed, fallible human being like the rest of us are. He will screw up sometimes and seeking the political equivalent of the death penalty for his offense is inappropriate and out of bounds.

This impeachment was born in sin and it deserves to die in sin. I’m looking for the acquittal of the President in the coming week.

Ah, he voted as he was told to and that’s good enough for now.

He can go away again.

... “When you don’t give capital punishment to somebody who left the scene of an accident, ...

If that was a dig by him at Ted Kennedy, at least he got that one right :)

If it was improper to look into corruption because Biden was a candidate it was improper for Obama to investigate Trump starting in 2015.
