    I think an impeachment which has more Republicans than just Romney voting for it would be a very positive development -- even if it doesn't reach 67 Senate votes.https://twitter.com/sahilkapur/status/1347550214471737344 …

    Sen. Ben Sasse, who voted to acquit Trump last year, tells CBS he’s now open to impeachment: “The House, if they come together and have a process, I will definitely consider whatever articles they might move because ... I believe the president has disregarded his oath of office.”

        Any President who does anything like this needs to know they face an impeachment trial and vote, every congress will be different, agree, 64, 65 still good. Impeachment isn't a threat if you are too afraid to try it.

        I'm sure testimony will be easier to obtain as well, plenty of people looking to distance themselves and probably won't be looking to fight subpoenas or wuss out like bolton

        so this is the general mechanism by which the radical republica right is going to be rehabilitated i see - those who participate in the ritual denunciation (whether by resignations or symbolic votes) will be retconned as "the good ones". a whole new generation of george w bushes

        Sasse is only saying that because he knows McConnell is not going to call the senate back before 1/19 🙄

        Do you think this is a last ditch effort to try to distance themselves from the insurrectionists?

        Why aren't the ones yelling to force the m4a vote all over this one? This will get republicans on record as supporting sedition if they vote against. @jimmy_dore

        Once the levee breaks, I think you'll find a few more willing to step out into the light and stand tall against Trump. Noone except Romney was willing to do that alone

        You'd have to assume Susan Collins would vote to convict this time.
