Susan Collins Will Vote to Acquit Trump
February 4, 2020 at 4:23 pm EST By Taegan Goddard

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) — seen as a swing vote in President Trump’s impeachment trial — said Tuesday she supports acquittal, the Los Angeles Times reports.

While Colllins said Trump’s actions were “improper and demonstrated very poor judgment,” she concluded they did not meet the threshold for removal from office.

Said Collins: “I do not believe that the House has met its burden of showing that the president’s conduct, however flawed, warrants the extreme step of immediate removal from office, nor does the record support the assertion by the House managers that the president must not remain in office one moment longer.”

Collins to CBS News: “I believe that the president has learned from this case. The president has been impeached. That’s a pretty big lesson.”

3. She believes the President "has learned". Yep.

He's learned he can get away with absolutely anything. And she'll turn her head the other way.

5. what a fool.

I hope there are enough sensible voters in her district to vote this lickspittle out of office.

8. She is a total fool, Trump has learned nothing except he can get away with anything.

....Collins has enabled Trump. She needs to lose in November. Collins knows that, and everyone knows that. she needs to pay the price.

It's not the politically expedient thing for her to do. She is as disgusting as the rest of her party. Garbage people, the whole lot of them. Filthy, dirty garbage.

She just wears better clothes.
