That’s just it.

Romney if he had the cover of other Republicans, would definitely vote to remove Trump.

But he doesn’t have that cover. So Romney must choose between his personal sore loser dislike of Trump, or maintaining some connection with his base.

He can claim a vote to hear witnesses was not anti-Trump. Of course, we know it was.

But he can’t vote to remove Trump on baseless charges like this and claim it was a vote of conscience and not petty vindictiveness.

I hope “Captain Wunderpants”is forced to resign in shame once the Biden Burisma scandal is fully revealed to the public. He may be untouchable in criminal court but he can be ruined in the court of public opinion. Make him own up for his misdeeds and treachery. Make him cry in public and retreat from public office in shame.
