    This should be interesting to watch. They'll either fail to convict -AGAIN - or they'll find some way to keep it from a vote. No way they find 17 Republicans with the backbone to risk their careers. Idiocy...

    Another impeachment clown show! Is Speaker Nancy going to get herself a private no mask shampoo and facial for this one?

    Complete waste of time. He won't be convicted. Focus on helping Americans instead

    this is the right wing's moment of truth, the line drawn in the sand with their Waterloo on one side with Dems as vultures and a barely politically sustainable party away from the toxic one on the other. I've done well investing in corn futures with all the popcorn going down the last year.

    can the disgraced salon owner who set Nancy up even be found after running for her life from the State she stunk up?

    McConnell will not vote to convict. He will ultimately decide that it is too risky for him to maintain his power

    I don't think McConnell plans to run again, this would be a historic vote for him.. he wants to save his party, not Trump

    He wants to be majority leader in 2022

    The votes are not there. Years from now this will be looked at as a mistake that undermined the Biden administration

    An opportunity for the Republican Party to take back their Party and get back to policies like balanced budgets, free trade and internationalism rather than isolationism. As John McCain told you...those jobs aren't coming back.

    Yeah Chuck Schumer lol: "Make no mistake, there will be a trial and when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John Trump incited the erection". Forget blow jobs in the
    the Oval Office, Trump incited an erection.

    Trump has incited more erections than the Democrats will admit. Chuckie Schumer knows it's true and that Pelosi woman too.

    Poor Pelosi, the owner squealed, so the Democrats are now persecuting her a la mafia style. So take your pick, what are we now the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany?

    Like I said... LET them vote to convict. Might as well get rid of the few who haven't already stuck the knife in his back. These fools are going to see the same reaction from their "constituencies" that dear old FNC are seeing now.

    The Democrats think that they can do this and the voters will forget about it by 2022. I believe that’s wishful thinking.
