Pelosi's strategy is working.

Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) is another endangered Republican running for reelection in 2020. She joined with Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) in complaining about the process of impeachment unfolding in the U.S. Senate.

In a Politico report Monday, Ernst told Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) it was time to start working with Democrats instead of against them.

“We need to start working together on procedures,” said Ernst.

Fellow Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine said that she wants to wait and see after opening statements. That flies in the face of what Americans have said they want.

She is a hack just like Susan Collins. She says things that make people think she is reasonable and then she votes the way Grassley and McConnell tell her to.
