I dont get these people who say they dont want a Civil War. The Rats have been trying to destroy this country for 100 years. Why are we trying to stop them? We wont be going back to some time in the past when the Constitution meant something no matter what happens. We need a vision for the future like the Rats have. A vision where we send 30 million illegals home. A vision of a country where Socialists and Commies and corrupt politicians have to flee for their lives.

Any Republican that votes for this sham should be more than nervous.
Just saying, not threatening.

Any Republican Senator who would vote to convict the president had better build a deep bunker and stay down there.😁👍

I think Yertle is discovering ground he can work with, with Trump. I think Yertle will not permit a conviction.
Now, there will be quid-pro-quo; namely, no Deep State RINOs be exposed.

Especially if there are 20+ of them and Trump is removed.

The two third requirement for conviction is a constitutional requirementJust remember - it's 2/3 "of Senators present", not 67.

NO impeachment trial. !!!!! Cuz as soon as the senate exonerates President Trump, the DIMs will just investigate him again to see if they can create a perjury charge. 👵🏻🙏🇺🇸

All you need to know is that
1) Yertle said he would allow Trump/WH to determine the defense and
2) Mike Lee already is on board with an acquittal. Now, Lee was a neverTrumper, and so far you haven’t had one single R, not even Minion, suggesting otherwise.
The only issue here is whether to do a fast-track acquittal or to try to use the trial to draw out evidence on DemoKKKrats. I favor the former. Never “take points off the board” hoping for more. Too much can go wrong.

Trump brought this on himself by being extremely weak on crime. The democrats have committed one crime after another, escalating to abusing the power of congress, and none of them have ever been charged with a crime. None.

Romneys been trying to get rid of trump since June 2015. Fails everytime. That speech in 2016 was a hoot and a big bomb.
