Do you honestly believe the Senate won’t convict? I count 61 votes right now FOR impeachment in the Senate. All the Democrats (47) will vote yes, joined by Sasse, Romney, Murkowski, Collins and the other RINOs, including McConnell! Heck, it would even be payback time for Cruz and Rubio.
When it gets to the Senate, all bets are off. Keep your powder dry.
Speaking for Texas, I assure you Cruz will not vote to convict based upon the evidence currently known.
Cornyn may be a squish, but he will not vote to convict either.
So the question becomes, how do the Dems get to 67?

I tend to agree with you. It was obvious that Bill Clinton was not going to be convicted in the Senate.That whole thing was just political theater.
But the Deep State really, really resents Trump. Caesar walked among his “friends” in the Roman Senate. Then all of a sudden the knives came out.
If I had to bet today, I’d bet that the House would impeach, but the Senate would not convict. But I wouldn’t bet the farm on that. (I would have bet the farm in Clinton’s case.)
