        Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, the U.S. Senate members hate the chamber more than the U.S. general public.

        There should be a long list of #witnesses starting with #McCarthy, #Trump, #Pence, the leaders of the two protective teams of the Secret Service, #Giuliani and the other speakers on 1/6. The weight of the #evidence must shame @SenateGOP to #ConvictTrump.

        Increasing the political cost of Republicans standing by Trump is not nothing. Even if they don’t convict him, forcing Republicans to either stand with Trump or denounce him is a good thing.

        The Dems are not to blame for how all this played out. They did all they could do. This is all on the Republicans and their party. Dems just need to focus on the next four years & give the Republicans the middle finger if they bring up unity. Dems don’t need them.

        We need two parties in my opinion! I’m independent and lean more liberal , but I agree with the fact of both parties needing each other to stand !
