Coons: ‘Disheartening’ that There Won’t Be Votes to Remove Trump in Senate
Breitbart ^ | 11/26/2019 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 11/27/2019 6:00:08 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that he will weigh the evidence in front of him if there is a trial of President Trump in the Senate, and that he finds it “disheartening” that there do not appear to be the votes to remove the president if the case comes to the Senate.

Coons said, “Well, as a senator, the pledge I’m going to take is to weigh all the evidence in front of me. So far, I haven’t seen any evidence that’s exculpatory, that would explain the president’s perspective. That’s why I hope he does testify, or that he does have his secretary of State or acting OMB director — or chief of staff, excuse me, testify. I haven’t seen any evidence that gives the president’s side or that explains his conduct as anything other than inappropriate. From what I’ve heard publicly and privately, I don’t think there will be the votes to remove him if this does come to an impeachment trial in the Senate, and to me, that’s disheartening. Because it removes guardrails on presidential misconduct.”

Look at that pathetic excuse for a man let Biden paw his young daughter.

It’s mostly “disheartening” to him that we have a constitution and an electoral college.

So far, I haven’t seen any evidence that’s exculpatory

1) We don't know what the President is charged with.
2) We're going to assume he's guilty of whatever.
3) If he can prove his innocence, we might not vote to remove him.
4) But he's guilty so let's get started.

So, without a trial so far, he’s already determined Trump is guilty but the jury is “tainted”. Nothing political happening here. Okay.

Nancy barely has the votes to impeach. Forget about the Senate.

Such a shame you don’t have the votes to absolutely rip the country apart over your stupid ass obsession with power, you filthy, corrupt villain.

What a pity.

Wrong!

You're a Democrat hack and you've already found him guilty. Now all you need is sufficient political cover to explain your vote.

And speaking of pledges, Senator, do you recall the one you took about the constitution? You might try reading that. Schmuck.

In other words guilty until proven innocent. Well we haven’t seen any evidence that’s exculpatory that you didn’t rape an eight year old boy how about it?
