I am going out on a limb here and predicting all 7 will be reelected. Incumbents have entirely too much staying power in our governmental structure and this is true for both sides.

Cassidy was a particular disappointment, after he accepted the endorsement and campaign support from Trump last year.

Repeal the 17th. Put control of the senate back into the hands of the states. It’s their only means to have a voice in our federal government.

Have you noticed how Sassafras talks like a valley girl? The way he inflects his speech at the end of sentences is embarrassing.

...while wearing his magic underwear. Doesn’t he get his own planet or something at the end of this?

Toomey already said he isn’t running again.

Right now he’s just auditioning for a spot on CNN.

Trump has never had a victory that someone did not step in and try to tarnish and smear it, to try to make the smear more memorable than the victory. That is what these seven vile cretins did.

I am curious if anyone was shocked by the names on the list?

Not really. Don't discount the fact that they may actually believe he is. This goes for Joe and Nancy as well. They don't always believe they're wrong. They may honestly believe he was guilty.

I’m more concerned about how they’ll vote on any upcoming gun control legislation to be honest. The voters of their respective states will have to decide if it’s reasonable and/or feasible to primary them.

Toomey has already announced that he isn’t running again in 2022. He voted this way because that’s who he is.

Not shocked by this in particular - but the last four years has been a real shock to me - I still can’t figure out where stupidity ends and evil begins. Evil or just stupid? I really can’t wrap my head around it.

But I’m talking about all of the Democrats too.

The most shocking thing for me was how obvious the Left’s dishonesty and hypocrisy can be - how destructive it can be - and still, they stick to their false narrative - they double down on the obvious gaslighting.

They stand by and watch as lives are ruined. They watch as elections are stolen. They watch as the one man standing between us and the CCP is cruelly cheated and lied about for four years straight.

And they dare to say they are doing it because of the oath they took to protect the Constitution!

Is someone like Toomey here in PA that stupid? I mean he made it through law school.... Or is he evil? Or are the conspiracy theories true, and these people’s families are being physically threatened if they don’t vote a certain way?

I really can’t square it - the shock for me about these seven is that I really thought it would go the other way - that a bunch of Democrats would be embarrassed by the level of dishonesty in this latest smear job - and vote to acquit.

I even thought Romney might say this is going too far - too much lying - too much hypocrisy.

But I keep giving them too much credit. That is the part that has shocked me for the last four years - that these people really seem to have no shame at all.
