NJ.com ^ | 2/2/2020 | S.P. Sullivan

Former Gov. Christie Todd Whitman this weekend assailed her fellow Republicans in the Senate for blocking a call for more witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump.

Whitman, a moderate Republican who served as governor of the Garden State from 1994 until 2001, said on Twitter it was “mind boggling” that the Senate would vote, nearly along party lines, to disallow witnesses from testifying in the proceedings.

Trump was impeached by the House last month on charges that he abused power and obstructed Congress as he tried to pressure Ukraine to investigate Democratic rival Joe Biden, using military aid as leverage as the ally fought Russia. He is charged with then blocking the congressional probe of his actions.

A childhood friend of GW Bush (it figures), Whitman was a flop as governor. She ran on a good platform but either couldn’t or wouldn’t deliver.

It’s mind boggling that someone so ignorant could have been a governor.

Why is it “mind-boggling” that no more witnesses are called?

Dems and their Media pals have been saying daily for the last month that the “mountain” of evidence is “overwhelming” and “conclusive”

so, obviously they don’t need to investigate any more, if the evidence is already “overwhelming”, right?

New Jersey just had a massive, massive blowout rally for President Trump.

I think this Bush poodle adds zilch to drawing away from the outpouring shown just last week for the President.

The corrupt wing of the Republican Party has as much to lose as the Democrats.

They love the Swamp, and they have kids in do-nothing pay-off jobs too.

This insufferable nag again.

Did she complain about the completely partisan vote in the House?

Of course not.

She IS a Democrat and has voted for Democrats for years. She hates Trump.

Yawn..... She is so boring.

The media would eat glass if it meant they get to find some hasbeen republican to bash Trump or the Republican party. It’s amazing how stupid people are to not realize that the rat party is assaulting the Constitution and attempting to, “fundamentally transform “ the country. . ..thanks 0bama. ..rot in hell.
