"....A majority of senators voted to convict Trump — 57 to 43, including seven Republicans. But two-thirds, or 67 votes, was needed to convict. It was the second time Trump was acquitted in an impeachment trial.
The seven GOP senators who voted to convict Trump on Saturday were: Richard Burr of North Carolina, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania......"

That a large majority voted to convict causes me to lose all faith in our congress. I’m done with these clowns.
I simply cannot take these people seriously. It is proof that it is easier to get elected than hired.
Looks like Manchin, the Cowardly Steer, chooses to run with the Herd once again. His act is running thin.
“I have a Conscience and might not vote as Schumer/Pelosi suggest.”
“Garsh, I cast my vote with Schumer/Pelosi.”
Whatta useless sack o’poo.
TRUMP WON!
Scum: Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania
I heard the Dems are contesting the acquittal vote, they believe DJT was actually convicted. Apparently the vote was rigged and they’re demanding a full hand recount . . .
It was being said on the news earlier today that calling witnesses could drag this charade out for weeks or even months. I guess these RINO’s would prefer than than doing what we pay them to do, which is getting to the business of the American people. Jerks and twerps, all of them.
Sounds like you hate legitimate option but put of fear of thr scary rats you folded. Never do that again otherwise you’ve learned nothing
Agree. West Virginia should wake up to the act, especially as Biden closes down Fossil fuel.
It’s really hard to figure out how they totally ignored Trump’s defense team—I know they didn’t ignore, they never listened in the first place. You have to be a moron to vote guilty after they doctored the evidence. Shows they are nothing but democrats.
Heavenly Father, We praise Your Holy Name. Thank You for intervening in this incidence of malfeasance. In Jesus Name, Amen
Yep. The Proggies are getting impatient for this avalanche of loot they were promised. Can't let a Senate trial interfere with that.
On January 19, 2021 the DOJ announced it was dropping its investigation of GOP Senator Richard Burr of NC for insider trading. On February 13, 2021 Burr voted to convict Donald Trump. Coincidence?
And it’s a fantastic feeling! Let the left go nuts...we have work to do.
Murkowski is up for re-election in ‘22.
Alaska, please primary her.
They don’t care. They don’t need your vote. They can buy votes from Dominion.
I read something about Sarah Pailin thinking of running against her. Does anyone have an update on that?
Same. First time I ever voted for her. Based on representations the race would be close, that the GOP supported Trump, etc., I filled in the bubble.
I regret giving her the support.
