WASHINGTON—When revelations about President Trump’s efforts to pressure Ukraine first started dribbling into the public in late September and early October, Republicans were caught off guard.
Some members of the GOP criticized Mr. Trump’s request for Ukraine to open investigations that benefited him politically, while others sought to avoid the topic altogether. As many as 20 House Republicans initially were open to supporting Mr. Trump’s impeachment, according to Rep. Pete King , a retiring member from a competitive...
Republicans aren’t even trying to deny that Trump used tax payer money to extort an ally country for his own political benefit anymore, because the evidence is clear that he did. Now they are trying to say there is nothing wrong with him doing this. It is appalling
VoteThemAllOut
While the House Dems were in lockstep and thumbscrews behind Nancy! Want to find out how they really feel? Go to the Dem Club at night when she’s not around!
You write like it’s a good thing, if there was no country left to live in would you still want a united senate that actively protects a dictator or would you rather your reps grow a spine
So loyalty to Trump is more important then loyalty to country. How sad.
Funny, this whole impeachment hoax came about because Democrats were in lockstep behind Pelosi. Funny, not one Republican and for that matter the public were behind this impeachment. Seems Democrats abused our Constitution.
I hope to see MAGA hats everywhere Tues morning !! Go Trump !! Those of Us who love America will support Trump !
They are all bought by Russia. It's that simple.
Pretty easy to do seeing as no crime was committed, no law was broken.
Good
I think they wanted to use the world 'lockstep' and worked backwards for the article from there. Graham has been all over the place, the squishy Murkowski and Collins aside, and the duplicitous Romney are certainly not in 'lockstep'.
But are the 4 senators Schumer is targeting on board!
The GOP Senate is in lock step with the President? I thought they took an oath to hear all evidence before making a decision. This is just the final reason to vote them out in 2020!
Because he makes more sense than what the stupid socialist Democrats are trying to do to America and people!
So sad and disappointing.
By the exactly same way why he has unconditional support of 95% of GOP. 1. Trump is a historically rare kind of POTUS-es, who strictly following the policy declared, when he was a candidate. 2. “Trump economic miracle”: Misery Index (unempl. +infl.) at the lowest level since 50s
They are afraid of the dirt David Pecker uncovered for Trump. Blackmail is one strong motivator.
That’s because they are chicken bleep
Why the GOP is still loyal to Trump? Cult-like, white male supremacy rooted in economics. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Maybe because the whole thing is bullshit?
The House Dems do not have a legitimate case for impeachment. It will be interesting to see how the nitwit Dem House managers will present their case. Look for tears and fabracated fantasies. The lib media and the Dems will complain about bullying by Trump's attorneys.
Because they are all gutless immoral cowards.
You forgot the word cult
Because he is ok
Why is it the witnesses the Dems want are deemed essential while the witnesses the President will likely want are not pertinent to the case?
And why shouldn’t they be? The whole thing is a sham without any charge of any crime and evidence of nothing. Did Pelosi really handout Montblanc pens?
If it was business as usual after Trump took office, then his actions regarding Biden/Ukraine outraged the Dems, they would have a glimmer of credibility. The fact that they've sought a rationale to impeach since his election says it all.
Really? What did we witness in the House? This whole impeachment hoax has been the work of only House Democrats. Not a single bipartisan attempt in the House. But now they want the Senate to ignore their hoax.
Conformists
Corruption at it’s finest.
Reading the president's brief is enlightening, unassailable.
Impeachment of Trump is a partisan attack on Presidency. House Democrats indulging most extreme left-wing elements in party. On talk-show circuit, Pelosi giddy, giggling and taking applause from far Left. ImpeachmentHoax is antithetical to democracy. ImpeachmentTrial
What is the opposite of a smart take? This. Why do people back Trump? How about: - He did nothing wrong - Democrats accused him of something Biden did Someone would have to be mad, deranged, or these authors not to see it. Happened with Russia. Then Ukraine. READ THE BRIEF
How? Democrats clear deceit and incompetence. It’s been laughable to watch.
They know they if they don’t hang together, they’ll hang separately.
$$$$$$$$.
Shame on them betraying their oaths of office so blatantly.
Weird how the WSJ hasn't reported on the lockstep corruption in the House.
Walk of shame.
They are so afraid that if they don’t support him their career is done...what they don’t realize that if they support him their career is done.
And House wasn’t ? Such hypocritical nonsense!
Brainlessness and repetition of lies
So are lemmings in lockstep as they march over a cliff
true walk of shame....not one spine or shred of political integrity among them....not a one.....
All Trump had to do was be HONEST for 8 years, that`s all, and he fucked that up. All his life has been LIE and CHEAT, he had his chance. Now he DISGRACED his LIFE, his FAMILY, the GOP Party. He`ll FOREVER be IMPEACHED. And LAUGHED at by WORLD LEADERS.
