Moments before Wednesdays impeachment hearings and right after U.S. Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondlands opening statement was released, Fox News contributor Ken Starr wondered aloud whether Sondland flipping on President Trump would cause GOP senators to push Trump to resign. The real issue is the senators are watching, Starr said. Are senators going to now say in light of what we hear today, its going to be a long day even with the ambassador alone, in light of what we have heard, We need to make a trip down to the White House? That historic example set during the Nixon presidency. From what Ive been able to glean I dont think thats going to happen. But obviously what happens today couldhas the potential to be a game-changer.

On that you can bet your last dollar. But Ken Starr is among the typical NO GUTS, cowardly Republicans who get completely spooked every time George Stephanopoulos says, "boo!".
Sondland completely changed his testimony. I guess he knew he had perjured himself the first time and wanted to fix it today.
Man, this was a bloodbath for Trump. Luckily for him it’s too complicated for his supporters to follow, so he will not be touched by this politically.
IT WOULD BE THEIR DEATH KNELL IS RIGHT!!!!
America as an experiment in freedom WILL BE OVER!!
It is dangerously close to be over as it is NOW!!
OF COURSE he won't.
I'm just foretelling what's going to happen if Mitt and the NeverTrumpers get their wet dream satisfied.
BTW - I was one of the hardest fighters for President Trump during the primary wars of 2015-16.
“The GOP is already dead, post Trump, and to that I say hallelujah!!!”

I think you might be right!!
The stupid party just NEVER gets it!!
starr needs to fade away
Nunes: You are about to be smeared.
Nunes (later): By me.
Too many owe their allegiance to the gravy train.
I dont know who this guy who spoke today is and what he said that made a difference, but I fear some Rs dont need much of a shove to turn on us.
though getting to 67 is our saving grace.
Again, a simple majority and wed be screwed
Even with Romney types, the Senate will not conduct a star chamber proceeding against Trump.That is, in any Senate trial the Democrats will have to allege, and prove, actual substantive malfeasance by the president. On the evidence to date, they got nothin. The Democrats witnesses (who didnt personally see/hear anything) will fold like a cheap camera in the face of a cross examination.
And the Republicans will call witnesses for the defense. The presidents support will IMHO have the Democrats pleading for an end to the hearings in the Senate. If they ever actually take it that far. Which I doubt.
Sondland is the Ambassador to the EU....not Ukraine...
I KNOW, right? Who knew there was even such an ambassador?
These people are SOOOOO full of themselves. “I’m in charge of .... blah blah..... no, I’m in charge.... “
Uh... NO.. you are NOT in charge of Jack! Our great President D J Trump is in charge now.
Just like Rush has been saying for long long time now. These people are all hacked off that Trump is not asking them for advice, continuing doing what Obama had them doing, gasp. And no, he’s running this country like a business. THAT IS WHY we elected him. He was NOT a politician. He’s monitoring the money outbound.
Ozippy let Ukraine rot - by not giving them military aid. But wow...... where were these jerks in congress then.
Slimey Shiffy Shiff’s closing statement last night was enough to gag a maggot. IMHO
Take a trip on the Lolita ken? Are they calling in their marker? Me too, I’m done with all this shit of turn coat repubs on a dime with all the real crimes the deep state and dims constantly get away with!
Why burn this shit hole country down and surely go to jail for it...just get the hell out of here...sooner than later!
The deck is stacked against real Americans anyway...has been for years...we are just now for sure getting the real picture!
This next election will be the biggest scam and cheat feast ever seen...even if TRUMP gets the most votes or the electoral college big tech already openly announce ‘never again...this will never happen again again’. That didn’t seem to bother anyone then...everyone is lazy now...and they are about to be Venezuela-ed...that’s what is deserved lazy bums!
why has the gop let this damned circus go on... shut it down! Trump has committed no crime and the dims are tearing this republic apart. there are none with strength to do what is right and shut it down.
Sod off swampy.
Sondland appeared very eager to help the Democrats in his testimony.
Nunez and Castor nailed his ass to the wall; and Sondland went into serious damage control.
Sondland stating that he was a proud member of The Three Amigos was a stupid move. Proves he is an anti-Trumper.
No offense, but please educate yourself and stop posting mindless rants like this.
How the hell does anyone in the GOP shut something down in a House of Representatives where they are the MINORITY party?
NC is wall to wall with Gillis/Trump radio ads touting the tight bond between the two of them. Gillis is being primaried by a person claiming to be more conservative than Tillis. Gillis will not vote against Trump until after the primary, if at all.
Don’t accept the premise in the first place...
Sonland is setting the Dems a nice trap.
He’s telling them that in order to have a call with Trump or White House visit, UKR. Needed to make a statement about 2016 meddling, and put in place key investigators to start looking...
Sonland said over and over....nothing about Biden...
So he’s giving them the quid pro quo...but it’s not the one the Dems want, and it’s certainly not a criminal act.
He’s playing them for suckers!
[[Bill Clinton actually perjured himself and committed actual crimes and nobody on his party demanded he resign!]]
Democrats hardly ever turn on their own kind-
Stupid autocorrect changed Tillis to incorrect Gillis.
Because the GOP in the House doesn’t have the votes to shut it down! Too many people in 2018 thought it would so nice to let that cute Congressional Rat candidate win. People believed him\her that they wouldn’t go “all impeachment” if they had a House seat. I knew this would happen the day after the 2018 midterms.
