House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will send the article of impeachment against Donald Trump to the Senate at about 7 p.m. Monday, where a “full trial” will take place.
This, according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).
...
The Hill indicates only a handful of Republicans seem likely to go along with a vote to convict Trump, short of what they would need for success.
They write, “Only five or six Republican senators at the most seem likely to vote for impeachment, far fewer than the number needed.”
Meanwhile, CNN is reporting that several GOP senators have expressed that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) “could face backlash if he votes to convict Trump.”
“If he does, I don’t know if he can stay as leader,” one senior GOP senator allegedly told CNN.

It will backfire on the Dems. Like always they end up looking like vindictive, petty, hypocrites. Trump lawyers will show every clip of Kamala, Squad, MadMax, and Pelosi inciting violence. Hopefully the cherry on top is Pelosi wanting to drag Trump out of WhiteHouse by his hair.
Going to be tough to watch Trump getting trashed again, but they won’t come out of it unscathed.
The Chief Justice has no say and will not preside. Constitution says, “When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside...”
Let McConnell or any other RINOcrat demonstrate that the Republican Party is a corpse.
So what is this impeachment providing cover for I wonder? There is something going on behind the scenes, this is just a shiny object used to distract fools
Don’t be so sure about Trump being allowed to mount any defense.
They want their 2-minute hate fest to last 2 weeks
Almost makes you wonder if something else is going on...
/S (!!!)
Only in statist sh*tholes does a current regime keep trying to destroy the opposition especially after a coup.
Roberts is refusing to preside over it.
Because it’s a sham
I Would like to see Senator Cruz:
1. “Receive” the sham document from the House.
2. Remark to the “cameras” that, since the current president is Biden, that so-called “impeachment” document is illegal, incompetent and silly.
3. Tear the so-called impeachment document into strips.
4. Dump the strips in the trash.
Every week, we should have at least one rep pit forth a motion of no comfidence in nanzi, and another file to have nanzi impeached and removed.
It’s what leftists do.
Imagine a hobnailed boot stomping on your face...forever.
Democrats mewling and sniveling in defeat,
vicious and vengeful in victory.
Valerie Jarrett...Democrats don’t get over, we get even.
Or something like that.
No, there would have been NO investigation.
The courts and state governments took care of that. No evidence was allowed to be presented.
Cruz would not have changed that.
Pretty much.
