A sixth Republican revealed he would vote to impeach President Donald Trump, but the president's Senate trial won't start until after President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in.

Rep. Dan Newhouse of Washington said Wednesday afternoon that he would vote yes on impeachment.

'A vote against impeachment is a vote to validate this unacceptable violence we witnessed in our nation's capital,' Newhouse said in a statement. 'It is also a vote to condone President Trump's inaction. He did not strongly condemn the attack nor did he call in reinforcements when our officers were overwhelmed.'

Not to bright distancing themselves from 75 million Americans. But then again, no ones ever accused them before of intellectual marksmanship!

GOP, permanent minority (even if the voting wasn’t rigged). Hope it serves them as well they’ve planned-not.

My crystal ball says that any Republican that votes to impeach President Trump will NOT be reelected in Nov. 2022.

Any R that votes for impeachment is an enemy of the state.

I agree.

To be honest, I watched some of our own people create the
atmosphere the Communists adopted about Trump.

Well, here we are. Thanks guys...

He won-66%. He’s also 66 years old.
He’ll quit. He just wants to go out with a bang. Otherwise it’s a kick in the rear next time.

In other words: “My big donors are afraid and won’t contribute to me because they’ll suffer on social media.”

I would be careful saying yes to impeachment. All I’ve seen in the congressional debates are a bunch of very strange looking socialist telling bold face lies. In time all of these liars will be seen as liars by the majority of the public.

Remember last June, when the media and the Democrats convinced themselves that the whole country supported BLM?....Remember a few months later when polls showed that most Americans were horrified by all the violence, and they had to shut up about the protests, and even had to condemn the violence?

They are like crack addicts. They find something new to propagandize, and then they binge and crash. And they always have a few RINOS like Romney, Hogan, and Cheney riding in the back seat, begging for some hits from the pipe.

Good move you stupid bitches! Make a vote that identifies you as a target hereafter, and accomplishes precisely nothing other than giving people reasons to want you out of power.

Brilliant!
