No, it takes 67 votes to remove President.

No, I understand that. My point is that, against the constant BS of this is not going to happen, it's happening. It's gotten this far, that is evidence of anything is possible. And I do not trust mcconnel, seems everyone has forgotten that he is a leading member of the gang of 8. They knew what was going on and what is going on.

I took your comment to mean we are one voting event from removal, not one individual’s vote in that event.
Which is already too close for comfort. This should not be happening.

Oh, please stop with this. Trump will not be removed. If removal required only a simple majority, perhaps I’d be slightly concerned, because I could see the Romney, Collins, and Murkowski types caving to curry favor with the Left, but removal requires much more than that.

The Republicans know Trump is exceedingly popular with the party rank and file and he is their best fundraiser. I don’t doubt that many of the Republican Senators hate him, and would love to remove him if there would be no consequences, but the consequences would be profound, and they know it. The party would effectively cease to exist. They may not acquit him for the right reasons, but they will acquit him.
