Hmmmmmmm, don't know what tripped your trigger. Did I suggest that other people leave the party? Did I suggest you do anything? No.

I simply replied to someone I respect and admire on this forum as to my actions and for some reason you were compelled to take issue with my choice of action. Oh well, I think that is your prerogative as well. But you really didn't need to give me a history lesson. I think I knew the circumstances involved at the "Impeachment Trial" that wasn't. And the GOP sure gave the DemocRATs the cover they needed by not having a real trial, with real evidence and real witnesses where the DemocRATs would have had to stand in the kitchen and take the heat for supporting a President that subverted the law, perjured himself, and suborned others to perjury. Heck they didn't have to as we had a Republican Majority leader that gave them all the cover they needed.

Of course the odds are there would have never been a conviction as the numbers to convict weren't there, but hey we will never really know as there was never really any trial. Majority Leader Lott made sure of that and was backed by a majority of the GOP Senators.

But thanks for your pithy remarks, jack!

It's so sad the Republican Party is dead, and who cares right, I mean they just a bunch of commies in sheep skin anyway. So I guess I'll just vote for Pat B. or another Ross P. maybe I'll switch it up this time and vote Libertarian and then when all the Dems are in office then they'll see, those bad horrible Republicans will really feel it then. Oops but I can't say that anymore because then I'm talking against the The United Socialist States of America, the new government. But hey I stood up for my rights.......didn't I?

Real trial. Real witnesses. For what? There wasn't any chance for a conviction. IMO the impeachment managers did a hell of a job. They gave it their best and realized Democraps weren't going to throw one of their own over.
