There isnt going to be a tie, NO Republican is going to throw their entire life away to impeach Trump..just like in the House, NO Republican voted for impeachment, the same will be in the Senate, especially since this is an election year, 10 months til the next election..they will just let the voters decide

The republican senators who would vote to make this tie breaker a necessity stand a very good chance of not making it back to wherever they live, in state or out. They should consider this— they are not safe in not supporting their own party’s President.
