    ONLY SEVEN REPUBLICAN SENATORS Confirm They Oppose Criminal Impeachment of President Trump



    More at: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/201...t-trump-video/

    This is what Trump has to deal with, he MUST make deals and compromises to stay in office and get ANYTHING done, he CAN'T implement his agenda perfectly (let alone a pure libertarian agenda).


    And Why isn't Rand #8?

    LOL at the person who thinks that Fakeness is determined by the source of the news.
    There are a few outlets that are so dishonest that they should be ignored but most have real news from time to time.

    Do you have any actual reason to say this is fake?

    Not all senators responded

    The story is originally from the Daily Caller. Their version mentions that not all senators responded.

    Thanks.
    But Rand should have responded and been #8.

    Even if all 16 that didn't respond side with Trump that's only 23.

    Nope, just like you didn't for declaring this Israel's largest paper's report as fakenews without any logical basis.

    Daily Caller's phone polling about 7 Senators report I saw earlier and seems credible actually, they are far more credible than Israel-Firster neocons gateway propaganda site though.

    You are still making this about sources instead of content my statement that you quoted is based on the content.

    Republican Senators would probably reserve judgment until such time that an impeachment vote came up. Most would vote “Nay” based on what is known today, except the open neocons like Romney.

    Democrats on the other hand could probably give you a unanimous decision right now.

    “The whole point of the Senate’s role is to serve as a jury while evidence is presented. I won’t prejudice that responsibility by answering a hypothetical question,” North Dakota Sen. Kevin Cramer told The Caller in a statement. “The House should not present articles of impeachment without evidence to support such an awesome responsibility. So far they appear on a three-year fishing expedition.”
    Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander told The Caller that it is “inappropriate for the president to be talking with foreign governments about investigating his political opponents.” However, Alexander also said that “impeachment would be a mistake.”

    “An election, which is just around the corner, is the right way to decide who should be president. Impeachment has never removed a president. It will only divide the country further. If the House impeaches the president, the Senate would be the jury. There would be many twists and turns between now and a Senate trial. Therefore, as a potential juror, I will have nothing more to say about impeachment until all the evidence is presented and all the arguments are made,” Alexander said.
    Florida Sen. Rick Scott told the Daily Caller that he has read the transcript and that he believes no laws were broken. He did say that he would continue to listen to all new information that comes out, but that he believes this is another effort from the Democrats to push Trump out of office.

    “I’ve read the transcript and I don’t see anything in the transcript. No one showed me that there’s a violation of the law. The standard is high crimes and misdemeanors. I think this is just the Democrats. They’ve always been wanting to impeach this guy, Trump, since he got elected and this is just the latest example. I’m always going to keep listening to when information comes out. But it’s crazy that they’re doing all this work over there in secret,” Scott told The Caller.
    This doesn't sound like a majority of republicans are just waiting to impeach him to me.

    Where is Rand? Rand knows it doesn't matter if he opposes impeachment or not. The Senate does not bring impeachment, they vote to convict someone of impeachment. He also has nothing to gain by supporting trump at this stage, where he has no power. It is better to wait and either; get some political capital for protecting Trump when he has the power to do so, or, even if it is unlikely, if Trump is convicted, cut his loses, have the impeachment proceed as fast as possible, and run in 2020.
