While I think Mitt is an odd ball who would do anything to be president, he did vote to convict Trump.

How quickly could Trump be impeached and convicted if both sides came together? That could be quite the October surprise. Senate Republicans could do this as one last hail mary to keep the Senate. The could claim that they put country ahead of party...blah, blag, blah.
