Republican senators appeared divided Sunday on the wisdom of holding an impeachment trial for former President Trump, with Marco Rubio declaring the idea “stupid” and Mitt Romney asserting “truth and justice” demanded that the chamber pass judgment on whether Trump incited a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol.to send a single article of impeachment to the Senate on Monday, Democrats remained united in condemnation of the departed president’s actions on Jan.
Even for Republicans who no longer need fear angry tweets — Trump has been banned from Twitter — the prospect of an open vote on whether to convict him is clearly unsettling. “If we’re going to have unity in our country, I think it’s important to recognize the need for accountability, for truth and justice,” the Utah Republican said.
“There is a remedy that would help in the future, which would ban former President Trump from running again,” Sen. Amy Klobuchar said on ABC’s “This Week.” Such a disqualification could be approved by a simple majority, unlike the two-thirds vote necessary to convict.On the House side, lawmakers tasked with prosecuting the case said they would be able to present a “compelling” argument for conviction.
Well Rubio is stupid so I see his logic.
So: little Marco, stupid Marco or Stupid Little Marco...?🤔
All elected officials swear an oath to the constitution!!! Trump & others broke the 14th amendment, Congress is bound by that oath to convict Trump & possibly others!!!
Probably better to use a photo of Rubio for this tweet
If your writing laws truly then they are math in their structure it is not smart or stupid but rather legal or illegal
marcorubio is stupid for saying that! He's a coward who doesn't care about justice!
After Trump the House will impeach Bush, Lincoln...
Only the Sedition Party believes holding Trump to account is stupid.
Why is the photo of Romney instead of Rubio?
Why? Will this trial expose a few dirty politicians? Perhaps this man?
Trying to overthrow democracy is way more “stupid”
We simply want to prevent him from being eligible to run for office again.
Say his name! Silence is violence and racist not to say his name. Oh, yeah you only idolize those who fit your agenda. Disrespectful f*cks!
5-DEAD in the Capitol invasion provoked by former President Trump and some Republicans say there is NO NEED to have impeachment trial GOPLeader ? The need is JUSTICE for the 5-dead especially the police officer who died trying to defend the Capitol.
which is why there's a pic of a Utah senator who demanded impeachment in the Senate....
Which Senator does Trump have the juiciest Kompromat on: Cruz, Rubio, Paul or Johnson?
Deport the dude back to CUBA where Impeachment doesn’t exist and aligns with his belief.
He's a former president, and a criminal. The Senate is the only place he should and WILL be tried.
Rubbish Rubio should be removed from office.
You impeach him trying to prevent him from ever running again , doesn't stop any of his kids from running, and one of them may bring in more votes than him even. so a huge waste of money and time Jethro is a genius as compared
What is 'stupid' is this inane idea that our fair election was anything else. This is magical thinking and not reality. ElectionIntegrity is reality in the 2020 election.
Benghazi investigations was stupid. Oh wait! 4 Americans died there, & ISIS responsible, but GOP blamed Hillary. Capital terrorist attack where 5 Americans killed, organized by Trump & GOP & there’s nothing to see here? Hilary didn’t organize Benghazi but GOP acted like she did
The Problem with the trial in the senate is that sone if the same people who helped to incite the insurrection will be judging trump . It’s inherently unfair
And is the senator who said that the one in the photo...?
How bout some basic logic. You break the law you go to trial. The American way...remember that
It’s Rubio who called it stupid, why is the hed attached to a pic of Romney?
He's just afraid of Ivanka for Senate, and looking for excuses.
But you didn’t, you know, picture the Florida Senator.
Did lil Marco get his law degree from Trump U?
