Why republicon scum will go along with this impeachment

Real simple. This is maybe the one issue that will take down MF45 and his cronies, and leave them untouched.

They hate tRump. Yesterday's comment that "in private republicons say they despise tRump" was no mystery, just review all the recordings of what they said about him before the election. The only mystery is what Putin, or whoever, has on them that got them to line up and kiss tRump's doughy ass.

Moscow Mitch, his corrupt wife, and the rest of them are all complicit in so many crimes. They defended MF45 because they would be implicated along with him in nearly everything that has come up before.

The spectacular shitshow provided by tRump has served its purpose. Distracting the public, giving the corporate media something to talk about instead of what DeVoss, Mnuchkin, etc have been doing behind the scenes.

I often suspected that the plan was for republicons to eventually go "reluctantly" along with an impeachment, using MF45 as the scapegoat to take the blame for all the bad shit they've done in the last 2 1/2 years.

Now they're all over the Ukraine Phone Call. Corporate Media and party mouthpieces. Calling for a "narrow focus impeachment". Of course they want a narrow focus.. This will get the tRump admin and leave them untouched.

the senators will vote for removal. If Trump knows who voted against him, he will
primary them and that is what they are scared of. They are scared shitless of his approval rating
among republican voters.

Impeachment is a political process. Making the hearings so damaging to Trump that 70%+ of the country wants him gone is the only way for him to be removed.
