What you most hear from congressional Republicans on impeachment this week is the sound of silence. GOP sources tell CNN they have a good reason for that fear. They have no idea what else House Democrats' investigation will uncover or what comes next.

GOP sources tell CNN they have a good reason for that fear. They have no idea what else House Democrats' investigation will uncover or what comes next.Along with that fear is frustration with President Donald Trump: his ranting in performances full of false claims, like Wednesday in the Oval Office and White House East Room, and stream of consciousness rapid-fire tweets -- curse words and all -- are not exactly an anti-impeachment road map for his fellow Republicans.

How Lindsey Graham went from Trump critic to supporter 02:04 But GOP spin on behalf of Trump is not aging well -- especially confronted with facts. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California struggled to defend the President on CBS'"60 Minutes," and Ohio GOP Rep. Jim Jordan's attempts to bend the truth ran into a meat grinder of fact-checking from CNN's Jake Tapper on"State of the Union.

Tapper fact-checks Rep. Jordan on Ukraine scandal 06:14Instead, the President is relying on something that Clinton, then a second-term president, did not have: an active reelection campaign. But for all the emails, tweets, videos and ads the Trump campaign is producing to try to shape the impeachment narrative -- and it's a lot -- GOP sources on Capitol Hill say it is not the same.

SethAbramson The Republicans had ought to read Abramson's books.

O no there are a few Trump lackeys spinning on cable and twitter

KKKTrump Moscow Mitch is talking behind ur back, same as Mike PENDEJO n several others from ur own party,

Tick tock! Karma is funny

Those fools are still waiting for a high crime or misdemeanor! Just impeach him, then figure out a charge. Oh wait, that is what Democrats are doing. Never mind!

LLLwry It’s well past the time when Republicans should have stood up for country & the Constitution instead of Trump & party. This fiasco will make fools of the Republican Party & maybe destroy it. That’s ok with me since I’ve never had reason to vote republican, but is it good for 🇺🇸?

It's like they are waiting for cancer results from the upper and lower GI series they had last month. Can't stop clenching to speak.

Would you please identify the speaker being interviewed rather than leaving an interminable ticker on the bottom. I had no idea who was commenting until end of interview when Cooper briefly said his name.

SethAbramson Hello darkness my old friend I've come to talk with you again …….

SethAbramson Of all the posts under this article from CNN, more than half were posted by fake accounts. More than half.

They have good reason to be concerned. The Republican party as I knew it, is long gone. They’re display of spinelessness since trumps election is truly amazing. They will pay for it in 2020.

GOP is complicit. In everything. People need to realize that. TrumpMeltdown

Tell tell the public what the papers said!!!!

Report the truth!

Why can’t you be the go to news agency I used to like an respect? You sold yourself to DNC as their puppet? How much?

I am very disappointed in the Republican leadership. Especially since everyone knew that Schiff was a hate-filled partisan.

It’s better than the sound of stupidity coming from the Democrats as well as YOU, the media. 😂🤣😂🤣 BTW Where, is Hunter!!!

yokoboji The GOP has members on the intelligence committee, no? They know what is coming. They just don’t want to admit it.

Why would they say anything if the dems want to hang there sorry asses out to dry again we sure as hell aren’t going to stop them! The jig is up we know what you did now everyone will. Won’t you all be surprised who actually gets perp walked when it’s all said and done!!

SethAbramson Cowards..

This is total bullshit reporting by CNN. Meanwhile Trump campaign just raised 125 million! In actuality Dems are starting to realize their made ups farces and games are getting old. Moderate Dems and Independent Americans are leaning GOP simply due to the repulsiveness of Dems

✨💎

..like if they should mortgage their career on Corruption or not Idiots.

Hillary Clinton says evidence for impeachment inquiry is 'dramatic and irrefutable'Hillary Clinton dismissed concerns that Democrats are overreaching in their impeachment inquiry into President Trump, calling the evidence at the center of the probe “dramatic and irrefutable.” What is her interest in this crap? Revenge? Methodist revenge? Is she Methodist or hedonist like all these elitist intellectuals? What a happy woman?
