His name is Mitt Romney.

Everyone else that used to be a Republican is now a Trump Party member.

Trump Party members aren't going to impeach their leader - period.

Get those cowardly senators on record right before the election, voting for a rigged trial. Also it would bug the shit out of the Con. That alone is reason to continue.

concentrate on getting the votes out, getting good candidates to run, raising money, etc. and guarantee we get the a&&hole out of office. I feel much better about getting him out of office since the worthless senate republican lackeys won't do their constitutional duty. I am guessing that they are afraid of rump somehow...

Ha, I have to laugh. Scared of rump. Everyone of these republican senators needs to be reminded of this on a daily basis, scared rumpless (like sh*tless, pardon the language here). Pathetic for a sitting US Senator to be afraid of their own shadow.

Why give them another chance to do exactly the same thing they did the first time?

Have some new things come up that should make us reasonably believe the the republicans in the Senate would vote any differently this time around?

Donnie Two-Scoops could engage in necrophilia with Barbara Bush and this repug dominated senate would pass it off as an interesting 'quirk'.
He has them by their respective genitals.

I don't give a shit about the corrupt repuglican senate. Just keep shining a light on the corruption. If Impeachment hearings are the only way then bring em on!
