Trump has 97% Republican backing? Conviction on the bogus impeachment charges are DOA.
Not even the RINOs are going to vote to convict.

You’re got to have faith in Mitt Romney (D-Kolob).
Where I went, every hand went up for Trump. No votes on Walsh or Weld.
“Trump has 97% Republican backing? Conviction on the bogus impeachment charges are DOA. Not even the RINOs are going to vote to convict.”
that’s a good point. i never thought about the positive impact that waiting until after the Iowa caucus might have on the final vote for acquittal, though i’ve always thought that all 53 GOP Senators would vote to acquit, even though a few of them thought it necessary to grandstand ...
they really have no choice because an attack on their leader is an attack on their party and themselves and i’m sure one of the points of the impeachment by the Dems was to try to wedge open any cracks in GOP unity ... but the Dems will fail, and the result has been to force the GOP to circle the wagons and vastly deepen their unlikely unity as a means of self-survival ...
and to me, the supreme irony of all of this is that the Dems’ mindless and uncontrollable hate and rage of President Trump was ultimately the driving force of that unity, as well as the ridiculous profusion of their many other self-destructive acts ...
