At least someone in the GOP realizes the real reason for this nonsense.
Will the GOP cave ??????
Yes the RINOS and GOP want Trump gone...there hoping to tank Trumps poll numbers for the election...
Not one senator will vote to convict....but hope Trump loses
And the Senate will get nothing done and no more Judges will be confirmed; just what the coup plotters want. Who will this advantage on the Dem side? It will certainly disadvantage any Rat Senator running for President.
“Democratic friends”?
These people are the totalitarian enemy trying to overthrow the government. You need to fix bayonets for them...not call them “friends”.
They should not allow Mitt to caucus with them.
Through April or May?
“Bernie, Amy, Lizzie: No campaigning for you. Is that what you want?”
That's just wishful thinking on their part.
DON'T FALL FOR IT!!
Senatorial Pres candidates will have to stay in DC. They cannot get out and campaign.
Send the serial liar and crooked Harvard and DOJ trained prosecutor packing back to his basement kangaroo court where he can scheme up some new outrages.
If they make it “go away” (and I think they should) then the Democrats will immediately begin an effort to start the farce all over again.
The GOP needs to make it go away and then THEY need to immediately investigate and indict big name Democrats. Offense is way overdue.
I really worry that the GOP doesn’t plan any action until AFTER the election. We need to win the House. We ned to expose the Democrats TODAY.
End this crap now!
Let the Democrats reopen their farce hearings and subpoena as many witnesses as they want. They have said they will continue investigating Trump and may bring another impeachment action against him so let them do it.
It’s enough already.
He should have said, If we call witnesses I will do everything in my power to make sure the Trial lasts until the End of October.
That keeps Bernie and the Fake Indian tied to their desks thru most of the primaries. Not gonna happen.
It all comes down to whether Romney and the other RINOs are willing to torch the entire GOP’s chances in November, and risk a potential wipe out in the Congress as the base stays home; and bear the blame for that for the remainder of their careers.
In the end, I doubt Romney will vote for witnesses if it comes down to it. He wants to serve in higher office...but that will never happen if he votes for witnesses.
Grandstanding politician’s dream.
If this happens than the Dems lose.
Bernie, Warren, and Klobuchar get no time on the trail and Biden wins Super Tuesday.
Then Biden spits his teeth out on the debate versus Trump.

“...but based on what I’ve seen so far, that the vast, vast majority of my colleagues…Republicans, will decide that we’ve heard enough.”
I think that before witnesses are called, these wobbly Republicans should go before the Senate and explain why all the arguments made by the Trump defense lawyers are wrong.
I seem to recall that when the Senate is conducting the impeachment, no other business can be conducted.
If true, then this alone is the reason there wont be any witnesses. Mitch wont stand down the Senate for 3-6 months and the senators wont stand for it either.
This could be the end of the Republican party, at least for me.
