So in an attempt to stop the impeachment trial from going forward the Senate Republicans went with the “That’s some old shit, yo” legal defense. Of course it wasn’t enough to stop the trial but probably enough to show they won’t vote to impeach Trump regardless of any of the facts, including the fact they were all cowering under their desks when the rioters stormed the capitol. But that’s some old shit.
Read a right wing news source saying it is wrong to think Democrats want Trump out of the picture. They don’t. They want Trump to continue to take center stage destroying the Republican party and exposing more lunatics. Democrats already have a treasure-trove of condemnation to hurl at Trump should he choose to run again.
I think this latest action from Senate Republicans proves they still don’t have anything to sell beyond Trump and they’d rather burn the country down in his service than try to give people a sane reason to vote for them. I know a lot of attention was spent on Trump going after Democrats but he also exposed Republicans and their long history of not doing shit for their constituents. Blocking abortions and passing Jesus legislation doesn’t pay the bills. Many Trump supporters hate politicians in general, not just Democrats.
Anybody believe the Republican party can save itself at this point?
