Asking Cruz and Rubio to vote their consciences is like asking pigs to fly.
They can't use what they don't have.
What they have in abundance is self-interest and fear.
So tell them that if they vote to acquit, you'll donate money to their opponents.
That, they understand.

It would be even more impactful if that message was also sent by the big corporate donors.
