The Senate is poised to launch into an impeachment trial for President Trump as early as next Tuesday, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said, as warring factions on Capitol Hill ended an impasse that had left the entire process in limbo for nearly four weeks.

Trump has the support of about 95% of the Republican votes. If Trump is removed from office, the Democrats are going to end up with about 80 seats in the Senate by 2022 -- including McConnell's seat in Kentucky.
This website is filled with trolls, or morons ... or maybe both.

Never seen a bigger collection of morons in all my life. You all honestly thin McConnell is going to through Trump over board? The man who is raising record amounts of cash for the RNC? Are you people that stupid? This is a classic rope-a-dope, with you guys as the dope. Mitch is stringing the DNC and the media along. Who do the Dems have for witnesses? Bolton? Who do we have Caimella, Lynch, Comey, Brennan, the Biden Boys. Remember the trial has to be relevant to the charges. Dems can’t call Russian hookers or other assorted scumbag liars like the House did. Also these morons are under oath. They lie they are held in contempt. Trump is going to destroy the Dems and Mitch is helping him, trust me! He is too dam popular for the RNC to get rid of. Lighten up people. It’s all part of the plan!

The GOP lied to the GOP base voters and supported open borders and unfair trade for 30 years. The GOP never lied to the GOP base voters. The GOP was open and unapologetic about their open borders and "free trade" agenda. That's why the GOP base voters supported Trump in 2016.

Exactly. Clinton had a kid gloves BS trial with basically no negative optics for Clinton despite 4 felonies. The GOP controlled the Senate. They are going to conduct a prolonged public flogging for Trump and Mitch is going to allow it. The talk of the outrageous House process is gone. Mealy mouth Mitch is treating it like the House conducted a dignified and fair impeachment hearing now as if we dont remember how awful it was

Mitch has setting up a mess for Trump by legitimizing that Stalin show trial
Pelosi cooked up .
Mitch is not on Trumps side .
He is a product of the DC Globalist swamp.
Trump is a threat and getting treated that way.

I joined FR in November 2000 -- when I needed a reliable source of information to keep up with the post-election news from outside the country.
I think the average IQ among Freepers back then was about 120, and it's declined by an average of at least one point per year since then.

This is Trial balloon by Mitch to see the reaction of his KY voters and the base.
He is trying to appease the Dems and see how much he can screw Trump and his supporters.
He is a weak devious Rhino.
But I think you need to read up too .
The Rhinos like Teddy went on the PR junkets today trying to sell this so they basically let the cat out of the bag .

As per usual, FR’s Wet Blanket Brigade is out in force to spew their never ending doom and gloom! I’ve had over 2 years listening to you A$$wipes tell us the end was near!
Hmmm, seems I remember Trump imploring McConnell for a Senate trial...?
Sorry, but I’m not throwing McConnell Overboard at this point.

You know, before pointing fingers at others, you might want to review the tenor of your own posts.
You’re living in a glass house and throwing rocks.

Re post 90:. 1 point per year, lol. A negative Flynn Effect can only end in idiocy.

Partner, the "Nancy Pelousy and Shiff for Brains Articles of Impeachment" is owned by Pelousy and Shiff for Brains since these are not "We the People's" articles of Impeachment.
This was a sham trial on President Trump and we have not even seen the Whistleblower's testimony or his or her photo.
The senators that wanted this Impeachment Trial to go forward will now face the electorate and already Congressman Stevens can either beat out Mike Lee or Mittens Romney in the great state of Utah.
