I do understand why so many, here and on msm , say he won't be convicted based on the GOPQ behavior, but I think it's possible. Let's emulate 45 in this (lol) and invoke the power of positive thought. Hopefully our positive thoughts can trrump his.

I've also said several times that if 10 of them stay home for the vote, to avoid going on record, then we only need 10 to join the Dems to convict. All things are possible!
