    I’m thinking of Republicans who might vote to convict.

    Likely:
    Romney
    Toomey
    Murkowski

    Possible:
    Collins
    Portman
    McConnell

    No chance in hell:
    The rest of the delegation. Good luck finding those 11 votes.

    "Private citizen." Huh? Doesn't he believe in the Office of the Former President? RINO!

    Kelly won the special election for McCain's seat and that's why he got seated early.

    Every state is different when seats get vacated and who can fill them and special elections and whatnot. Nevermind Georgia, where you need to have 50 percent plus one to win.

    Yeah. If this time next year we’re pretty much back to normal, which would mean the economy is back and unemployment goes down, that will be a huge deal for 2022 midterms.

    It just all depends on mass vaccinations.

    Collins? No fucking way. She will moan and groan and pretend to have a conscience but she’s a power hungry bitch. Her obit I’m looking forward to as well. Thank god she never reproduced.

    A “private citizen” who you said incited a riot at the Capitol.

    If McConnell flips, a number of other Repubs will follow suit.

    But either way, as I said, the Dems can't lose. Either a) Twitchy gets sent packing forever, or b) he sticks around, forms his MAGA Party, splits the GOP and guarantees a Dem majority for most of the coming decade.

    That’s easy. It’s different when they do it.

    By the time the trial is held, it will have been more than a month since the riot. McConnell won.
