Apparently Corker is happily willing to cede all senate power to trump. That is what he is saying.

The (1) Roy Cohn/Grift/Never-Apologize/Carny bullshit and (2) the GOP were made for each other.

I have said this before.

How Trump behaves 6 days from the collapse of his “presidency” and 6 months from its collapse will be quite similar.

He lives for the lies
The mike in his face
The attention
The disconnect from every human being but his own id

The monsters were, are and always will be the GOP. If we do not remember that, we will have lost a tremendous national bonding experience.

Because the only way we get rid of Trump lies in Our Own Constitution. Even WWII did not have that.

His constitution is the Constitution of the Confederate States of America. It has nothing to do with impeachment under our present Constitution.

Article 1 section 3 of the Constitution mentions a trial in an impeachment. Now, normally trials have juries. In this case the cited section says senators take an oath just like I did when I was part of a jury at a trial. The Chief Justice shall be the judge. So in every respect this is like a regular trial Senator Corker.
Btw Corker, how do you feel about abandoning the Constitution?

I wish CNN & MSNBC would stop interviewing him as if he were a voice of reason. He may be highly educated, but he has no objectivity and no real sense of right and wrong.

It’s estimated that around 70% of his “followers” on Twitter are bots of one kind or another.

I’m going to push back a bit here because it’s important that we get this right.

A recent poll (out and about right now, not sure which one-anyone have a quick link?) broke this down a little finer; 30% will vote for trump no matter what. That’s not 40 and it matters in the GOTV that’s coming soon!

50% +/- want to see him removed. That difference is where our Republic survives…

The people who say 40% mostly know that . They know that “Trumpers” include (1) confirmed knuckle-dragging RWNJ’s as well as (2) less-committed wise-acres who just get a kick out of seeing libs handwring and swoon. Forty percent just sounds Gloomier.

Which turns some people on
