The Republican Party used to be an honorable party, with some really good Senators and Congressmen, as well as Governors.
But now, the Republican Party is more than ever a Fascist oriented party, still backing Donald Trump despite his inciting the US Capitol Insurrection on January 6, 2021.
So today, the Republican Party in the Senate disgraced itself, with 90 percent of the 50 Senators, 45 out of 50, voting to try to stop the Second Trump Impeachment Trial, scheduled to start in two weeks.
Only Mitt Romney, Lisa Murkowski, Susan Collins, Ben Sasse, and Pat Toomey voted in favor of a trial, and even Mitch McConnell, who had condemned Trump for the Insurrection voted against having a trial.
The trial will go forward, but it seems clear that Donald Trump will escape conviction, and that will mean Donald Trump will NOT lose the right to seek public office again, creating a literal nightmare scenario that he could attempt to return to a political campaign again in 2024!
There should be a rule that those senators who voted against an impeachment trial should not be permitted to vote on Trump since they did not want a trial!
If only that was allowed, there would only be 55 votes and only 37 would be needed for conviction!
ReThuglicans are traitors to our country!
They’ve become the party of QAnon.
Kevin McCarthy is going to Florida to meet with Trump today.
Matt Gaetz is having an anti-Liz Cheney rally in Wymoning, because she voted to impeach Trump.
Because there may not be enough Republican votes to convict Trump, Democrats may have to censure him instead.
