President Trump welcomes a Senate trial. Is this a good idea? Let's take a look at the current Republicans in the Senate and see which ones would vote to remove the President from office.
Alexander, Lamar (R-TN) Tennessee Barrasso, John (R-WY) Wyoming Blackburn, Marsha (R-TN) Tennessee Blunt, Roy (R-MO) Missouri Boozman, John (R-AR) Arkansas Braun, Mike (R-IN) Indiana Burr, Richard (R-NC) North Carolina Capito, Shelley Moore (R-WV) West Virginia Cassidy, Bill (R-LA) Louisiana Collins, Susan M. (R-ME) Maine Cornyn, John (R-TX) Texas Cotton, Tom (R-AR) Arkansas Cramer, Kevin (R-ND) North Dakota Crapo, Mike (R-ID) Idaho Cruz, Ted (R-TX) Texas Daines, Steve (R-MT) Montana Enzi, Michael B. (R-WY) Wyoming Ernst, Joni (R-IA) Iowa Fischer, Deb (R-NE) Nebraska Gardner, Cory (R-CO) Colorado Graham, Lindsey (R-SC) South Carolina Grassley, Chuck (R-IA) Iowa Hawley, Josh (R-MO) Missouri Hoeven, John (R-ND) North Dakota Hyde-Smith, Cindy (R-MS) Mississippi Inhofe, James M.

(R-MS) Mississippi Young, Todd (R-IN) Indiana
Have at it!
Collins
Murkowski
Romney
I don’t think any republican will vote against him unless they don’t want to run for re-election.
Mittens, Murkowski, Collins, Sasse, Gardner, and maybe Burr.
Take a pill.
Murkowski or no one
Every changing circumstances, accusations and goal posts make the end not easy to predict.
This is never going to end. They will hound this man to the the end of the earth even after he is gone from office and from this world, and this is going to happen to every future Republican president too, watch. This is the new norm.
Murkowsky, Romney, Collins. IMO
Not one will. But they will Flake it and make it seem like they might, maybe do it. They want the attention.
I see what you did there! LOL!
My money is on Romney.
Love it!
That’s a trick question.
No Republicans will vote to remove Trump.
RINOs, on the other hand...
they will try to get something in return for his vote. Delay the wall, increased immigration, special projects, middle east deployments, ect, I am sure they are salivating at the opportunity this holds.
Then Pierre can run as a Democrat. I see Romney and Petey Buttigieg running as the Ambiguously Gay Duo. I bet Pierre already has the costume.
I think it depends on how low they can get the approval numbers down. If Trump did something like his EO on Birthright Citizenship being ended, then he would insulate himself further from this.
The only reason Romney ran was to hound Trump. Of course he will vote to convict.
They all see and resent Trump as an outsider who dared to expose their self-serving and corrupt Swamp. For that he must be punished for eternity to dissuade future would be Donald Trumps from running for office.
O don’t know, Romnet sat next to President yesterday talking about vaping....Maybe he won’t...
While many are focused on Republican defections, Doug Jones (D-AL) has to be a certain “no” vote, and I would suspect that Manchin (D-WV) would also have to be a no vote. Sienma in AZ would also be one to watch for a no vote. Interesting that there is very little discussion about the pressure on these three Dems in case of a trial.
