I agree with this. There may be Republican senators who won’t say a word until the moment they say “guilty” when the roll is called at the end of an impeachment trial.

Oddsmakers say Trump Republicans senators won't vote to impeach Trump. I believe all bets are off. Most Republican senators privately hate him & his power over them. If they believe, by banding together, they can push him out, I think there is a very reasonable chance they will.

This is a very unhealthy man… in need of Jesus & in need of repentance. Thousands of people are feeding into his narcissistic madness. Shame on any Christian who defends him. The next generation will judge this one, and God will judge every nation on earth.
