BREAKING: GOP Senators Now Believe They Have The Votes To Block Witnesses
The Gateway Pundit ^ | January 29, 2020 | Eric A. Blair

There’s a reason Mitch McConnell has been Senate Majority Leader for the past 13 years: He gets the job done.

And the biggest part of that job is keeping the GOP caucus, however necessary. At this point, he appears to have pulled off the feat once again.

“..it was clear “that the question of having additional witnesses is settled, and the Senate will vote Friday to wrap up the impeachment trial of President Trump.”

Excellent news. Except I really wanted to see Hunter Biden questioned. But not at the risk of encouraging the Democrats to keep playing their games.

Romney’s quickly dropping poll numbers in Utah are probably having an
effect too.

And here we sit, applauding the continued destruction of the Constitution and impeachment process. Go us!

I like Turtle. Name one other person you would trust in that spot at this point in time.

Don’t expose yourself to the potential of unknown down-side.

Keep things under control and close things down ASAP.

If the House had provided clear evidence of a high crime or misdemeanor, I’d have backed a full trial. They didn’t.

It’s over.

Translation: Murkowski extracted a commitment from McConnell to funnel billions of dollars of additional federal funds to Alaska. Some of these funds will end up in the pocket of Murkowski’s allies, relatives, etc.

“One nitwit on here yesterday said the RINO plan is to remove both Trump and Pence so that Nancy Pelosi becomes President. LMAO.”

Agreed!

IF (and it will NEVER happen) Trump is forced to leave office, Pence becomes POTUS and announces his VP within a few hours.

Nixon had THREE VP’s...

Honestly I could care less other than witnesses will just drag on this nonsense..

Hopefully certainly foolish GOP Senators won’t let the Dems pull a Kavanaugh...which is what this witness nonsense is about

I agree with you. I certainly don’t fear witnesses. But this needs to stop.

If that’s so, I’ll be waiting for the Democrats to pull another potential star witness out of their ... hats.

I agree. The "witnesses" called are gonna be a disaster for them, despite whatever la la land they live in.

Sadly, I wonder what the holdouts held out for in return.
