He is a RINO.
They are trying to dirty Trump up.
For several reasons.
Reduce his influence on GOP voters.
Reduce the possibility he will run again in 2024.
That is what this is all about. Nothing more.

He’s also leaving because he knows he won’t be re-elected. No doubt he’ll move on to some ocer-paid sinecure Deep State has lined up for him.

I think Deep State may be trying to cut its losses here and is using Toomey to try to provide some cover.

There are no legit elections anymore. President Trump is not looking at 2024.

They can also ban any supporters of Trump (including his children) from serving in the House or Senate if they convict as they will use that as proof it was an actual insurrection.

Fourteenth Amendment - Section 3:

"No Person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

All Toomey is doing is driving the stake in deeper and twisting it around in the corpse of the GOP.

RINO’s are the swap. They are the Political class.

This isn’t really about Trump at all IMO, but you’re close. They want to tarnish Trump’s agenda so that another GOP or third party candidate won’t be able to run and win using a MAGA-type campaign. Trump’s not young, and he’s gone through quite a lot over the last 5-6 years since entering the fray. I don’t think it’s likely he will try to run again himself. However, he might support a “Trump’s second term” candidate much like Slow Joe was really a “Obama’s third term”. They want to try to nip that possibility in the bud with this trumped up, (pun maybe intended) phones impeachment.

Toomey deserves a swift punch in the mouth.
