So howcome you masters of the universe in the senate didn't allow a motion to dismiss like you did with Clinton? Giving your fake opponents cover. Government is just a big WWE match, both sides taking public $$$.
Two weeks of senate in trial mode is playing the stupid game with them. Of all people, Murkowski had the balls to call the articles out as worthless. Rubio comes out after the fact. Weakling.
I'm glad Trump was acquitted, but the GOP is putting up a half-baked fight.
When did the vote to acquit happen? I miss something? I thought they adjourned till next week to allow the vote on Acquittal?
Murkowski didn’t want to do the House’s work.
Micro Rubio should have been run out of office after his first amnesty vote.
Flimsey Grahamnesty already has three.
“So howcome you masters of the universe in the senate didn’t allow a motion to dismiss like you did with Clinton?”
because President Trump didn’t WANT a dismissal,he wanted a vote of acquittal ...
“I’m glad Trump was acquitted, but the GOP is putting up a half-baked fight.”
Trump has NOT been acquitted yet ... that vote is scheduled for Wednesday, February 5th ...
My guess is that McConnell would never allow a vote on a motion to dismiss if he knew it would fail.
It’s all beltway theater. Shortly, back to regular programming.
Dear Micro Rube:
FOAD...
To be honest, this is the most sane I’ve heard Rubio sound.
Don’t worry, I know he’ll be back his old self before the applause fades.
Trump should give the SOTU Address from the Oval Office - after he’s acquitted. Not before.
“Bottom line is despite not initially wanting to do it they were bullied into impeachment by radical far left voices they are afraid of.”
That’s as sound an assessment as i’ve heard.
The poll tested “stealing the election” line was also a joke. Was Trump trying to tamper with voting equipment or something?

Go, Little Micro, Go.
Only winner in this travesty is the President. The House beclowned themselves passing Articles of Impeachment without due process then the Senate legitimized it by taking it up thereby setting a precedent that will plague them in the future.
Mr Trump exposed this guy to as a phoney for those who care to be honest with the unfolding of history.
What I'm supposed be greatful this backstabbing asshole votes to do the right thing?
Oh thats right he's a senator - a whore, be surprised he's doing the right thing and pretend there isn't a price attached.
Hey Marco - you suck
I have a different take.
I think that the president’s lawyers and the president did not want a motion to dismiss because they knew the case was BS and wanted to get his defense out to the public.
A motion to dismiss would not have allowed his side of the case to be placed into the public discourse. Six days of the prosecution making innuendos, false statements etc., vs. the defense’s tearing the house Dems and Senate Dems apart was great optics and a chance to educate the public on law and fairness.
The public understands basic fairness and saw none of that on the Dems side.
Little Marco writes like a sixth-grader.
Waited too long to speak out, he should have been attacking Schiff from “having secret evidence” in the last 3 years. If all the Republicans called this bullshit out hard and early there wouldn’t be so much of it.
Murkowski?
She crapped all over Republicans in her statement with her remarks about how theres not gonna be a fair trial in the Senate regardless what she does so she’s ending it now.
Yes she blamed both houses. Through egg on Senate Republicans.
She’s despicable.
Perhaps if enough Dem senators vote not guilty it eould give Schiff & Nadler plause in trying to do this impeachment scheme again.
After all, if the Dems really needed more evidence to make their decision, that means not evidence to convict.
At least his comments were appropriate to the situation - especially: “The same people to say “how dare Trump disagree with our intelligence professionals” are also the ones doubting the “intelligence professionals” on Soleimani planning an imminent attack.”
And he voted the right way.
