It will all boil down to political calculation and will have nothing to do with rule of law or loyalty to country. If enough gop senators are safe enough to acquit, then aquit they will, evidence and severity of crimes be damned.

Still think they will wimp out in the end. They lost control of their voters a long time ago and preparing them for this blow is something they’re not up to.

Next thing you'll tell me that Rudd Weatherwax had more than one Lassie.

A running Lassie
A jumping Lassie
A swimming Lassie
A close up "family time" Lassie

I remember being a very young lad and seeing Rudd being interviewed and saying that he had
@ least 10 or 12 Lassies. I was crushed.

Side with Trump and anger America, align against Trump and anger their base. Find a secure reelection strategy in that. They cannot grow their popularity. It's baked in the cake.

I can see GOP giving him an exit with all his spawn forgiven, run Pence with Nikki Haley. Evilgelicals would wet their pants, and then Pence, pardon trump for everything. He walks free and continues to stir up shit with trump teevee. I mean Fox Noose. If Pence is taken out for being up to his albino eyebrows in the shit, Romney with Haley. Romney full GOP backing if he Pardons trump/pence.

People keep saying trump may release Pence and pick up Haley. But, trump is becoming to Heavy a load so they may see Pence and Haley as a better ticket. That's why I don't understand Pence keeping his head up trump ass so deep, and lying in his Gods face like he believes His God can't see it. He could save his own ass.

for a year and a scene comes on with Obama making comments. It was such a nice feeling to see him, what a stark difference from today.
