He will be acquitted based on the Constitution but 54-46 is still a loss

I think the vote will be 54-46 with 4 Republicans voting guilty....that’s still bad compared to his last impeachment or Clinton’s

[DemocratSinceBirth]

1. Romney, Collins, Murkowski, Sasse, Toomey

I get 5

[Proud liberal 80]

2. Based on today's witness vote

I don’t think Toomey votes guilty

3. By that same standard...

...you can say a defendant acquitted in court “lost” because 11 of 12 jurors voted “guilty.” Sorry, but an acquittal is an acquittal is an acquittal.

4. Since this is not about removing hom from office, you are correct.

This is about defending the constitution and warning future legislators and future voters. So, a simple majority will be remembered. I agree.
