Mitt Romney Will Vote For Witnesses In Trump Impeachment Trial

Well the some debate about this

By modern precedence a 50/50 vote should be a fail in Impeachment.

However there no clear cut rule so the Dems are going to push Roberts to be the tie breaker.

Basically it going to be what ever Roberts feels like doing.

What a sorry excuse for a sham process when it all comes down to the ego of the Chief Justice

[From The Deer Stand]

Like Rush said, Democrats don’t want witnesses. Imagine how Trump’s lawyers would tear up the Bidens, Schiff, Ciaramalla the whistleblower.

[Bon mots]

[Bender2]

Gadzooks-- AND I voted for this scumbag to be President!

Well, I keep telling myself he'd have still been better than Obama, but not by much--

[Responsibility2nd]

Someone explained to me that even a 50/50 tie dooms the measure to call for witnesses. Not sure how or why.

Probably Senate Rules.

Anyway - if idiots like Schumer and Romney want witnesses - then screw them.

[cuban leaf]

I fully expect him to vote for removal. He’s only proving that what I’ve always thought of him is correct.

[bigbob]

Utah and Kolob adore him.

[McGruff]

Maybe he’s join Chucky Schumer’s protests.

[Made In The USA]

There’s no need for more witnesses, it’s quite clear what the verdict should be. Even viewing in a non-partisan way should drive that same conclusion.

This idiotic, even for Romney. America doesn’t deserve this clown in the Senate.

[Vermont Lt]

He is a sleeze who thinks he will “rise” like a phoenix in 2024.

Not in a million years.

[Mark17]

I think that about sums it up. I can’t add anything to it.

[Manic_Episode]

If presidential candidates are allowed to vote on this then Pence should also be allowed to vote.

[bigbob]

Millions? In a state with only about 600,000 voters, total?

[datura]

Mitch needs to remove Mittens from any committees- allow him to caucus with Republicans only.

[DoughtyOne]

LOL...

Well then, I guess not.

How about if he wanted to run for President again?

[Paladin2]

Romney has to be making money off this somehow.

[Ingtar]

For what it’s worth, ABC reports Murkowski is a No on witnesses. Watch Rand Paul screw it up now. (50-50 on something that should be unanimous is a shame.)

[Paladin2]

Utah = ~3.1 millions

-—> 4 House ‘critters.

You may be thinking of Wyoming...

[Taxman]

According to multiple “in the know” folks, a 50-50 vote ends the discussion. It is the same as a 100-0 vote - no NEW witnesses!

[DoughtyOne]

Yeah, unless he runs for president again, my number was too high.

Appreciate the mention.
