Senate Impeachment Trial LIVE - day 12 (Acquittal Day)
Jones gone. But he decided to cut his own throat.
MAGA!!!
Doug Jones just announced that he’s voting to convict on both counts. He’s toast.
Doug Jones just confirmed his defeat in November.
Bet he’s getting one heck of a golden handshake on the way out...
______________
Bye
He’s a moron. Doesn’t know the Constitution.
That tells me he knows he’s toast no matter what he does.
I think he knew he was toast in November anyway.
Can’t wait for Trump’s speech today...he said it’s gonna be a barnburner!!
Tear it up!
Doug Jones know he’s toast, and so this vote was a known before he even announced his vote. Alabama, hopefully, will send Tommy Tuberville to the Senate. TT is a non-politician, who still has some sense of right and wrong.
Senator Jones
“On the day I was sworn in as a United States Senator, I took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. At the beginning of the impeachment trial, I took a second oath to do ‘impartial justice’ according to the same Constitution I swore to protect.
“These solemn oaths have been my guides during what has been a difficult time for our country, for my state, and for me personally. I did not run for Senate hoping to participate in the impeachment trial of a duly-elected President, but I cannot and will not shrink from my duty to defend the Constitution and to do impartial justice.
“In keeping with my oaths, I resolved that throughout this process I would keep an open mind and hear all of the evidence before making a final decision on the charges against the President. For months, I have been studying the facts of this case exhaustively. I have read thousands of pages of transcripts, watched videos of testimony, taken copious notes, reviewed history and precedents and discussed this case with colleagues, staff, and constituents, in addition to having participated in the Senate trial over the past two weeks. After many sleepless nights, I have reluctantly concluded that the evidence is sufficient to convict the President for both abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

I just heard on Chris plante. ..romney might vote to convict. ..
Geez poeple was there any doubt?!! I never fell for the Jones and seima won’t vote to impeach because they are slitting their own throats narrative!! The hate for trump and their loyalty to Satan’s party is stronger than life itself or reelection! They just don’t give a damn. Perhaps Nancy shredding last nights SOTU document gave them even more emboldement to vote to convict! Who knows? But don’t ever fall for the “some Democrats will flip because they’re in a red state chit” it never pans out!
Trump’s coattails should return the AL seat to the GOP
LIVE: President Trump FINAL VOTE Senate Impeachment Trial 4pm Eastern
I believe you’ve hit the nail on the head.
His internals probably shows he’s losing that seat so, like all libs, he’s going to reveal who he really is and prove his “moderate dem” was just posturing in hopes of fooling the people.
Doug Jones bought and cheated his way into the Senate, anyway.
