RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski (AK) said Monday that she will not vote to convict President Trump.
“I cannot vote to convict. The Constitution provides for impeachment but does not demand it in all instances.” Murkowski said.
“The response to the president’s behavior is not to disenfranchise nearly 63 million Americans and remove him from the ballot. The House could have pursued censure and not immediately jumped to the remedy of last resort.”
Murkowski also blasted President Trump and spread Schiff’s lie that he was advancing his personal interests when he asked Zelensky to do “us” (the country) a favor by investigating Biden corruption.
“The president’s behavior was shameful and wrong. His personal interests do not take precedent over those of this great nation.”

Primary her
Serious, Senator, you don’t need to apologize to the Left for doing the right thing. They hate you anyway.
The GOP is useless....often wish I was a Democrat....at least they fight for what they want....
Time to become an independent...
Trump needs to take over in 2020 and change leadership and the name
I am so embarrassed to have her as one of my US Senators. At least I didn’t vote for her in 2010 or 2016. I did give her the benefit of the doubt in 2004, but that was the last time she will ever get my vote.
Can our Alaskan friends please run a principled Republican to replace this linguini spined Murkowski? She is pathetic. What does Feinstein have on her?
Gutless RINO worm.
Won't work, we know you and what you REALLY think of the peeps in your state.
Deceit, your alternative name is...
...Murkowski
Uh she’s not voting to convict!
Let her prance & bloviate.
Stupid craven unprincipled b!+c#.
She really needs a primary opponent. When is she up for election again.
Murkey is not interested in fraud regarding the misuse of American Aid to furrin’ countries?
Primary her, by all means. But realize that what she says has been worked out with Mitch. Shes agreed to vote the right way, but has retained the right to shoot off her mouth to hedge her bets.
Ironically, Murkowski, Mitt, and Collins often manage to thread the needle so perfectly that everyone hates them.
I am pretty convinced that half (or more) of congress could not change a flat tire. In a nation so full of successful men and women how do we find these people? Seriously, it is like a divine curse of some kind.
Oh, please. How was it you came to be a Senator in the first place?
I still don’t see what he did wrong. The whole POINT of foreign aid is so we can withhold it when we want something.
She brings out the Alaskan gimmiedats and wins.
Its been tried.
She’s not voting to convict, let her virtue signal.
She said it was a sin. Not a crime and not an impeachable offense.
Its going to be at least 53-47. Acquittal is baked in the cake.
I don’t trust her. She may change her mind at the last moment.
Senator Palin has a nice ring to it.
