Senator Dick Durbin: It Is 'Hard To Find' Another Republican To Vote For Witnesses | MSNBC
It’s hard to find a Republican with a moral compass.
DobyxRC how do you know? Did you watch any of the hearing or did Hannity tell you that?
@DobyxRC Because the Republican witnesses are immaterial, they are a distraction to peddle another baseless right wing conspiracy theory.
How I long for the days when you droolbuckets used to just snivel and whine about Jade Helm, Sandy Hook false flags and Obama’s birth certificate.
@Mainely You clearly have no clue how your country works. Look you poor little deprived child, read a book one time. Clearly Donald Trump is going to be acquitted because the Democrats have no witnesses that have any evidence. All they have is conspiracy theories themselves. Be prepared for four more years of Donald Trump, then settle in for Donald Trump Jr to take over for 8 years, then Ivanka will step in for 8 more… and so on…. and so on…. and so on LMAO you might as well move out of the US and go to Mexico. I hear they are tacking US citizens for free right now.
Harold Moore I did watch the entire Schiff show. As well as CNN, MSNBC, FOX, C-Span, Channel 4 (I gotta get a life)
It all comes down to one simple conclusion: Dems have no legal fact against Trump. Its just a dhow they are trying to drag out. If you have a functioning Pre-frontal Cortex its clear that Trump will not only get acquitted but Biden might very well be up on charges. https://youtu.be/1ZW12dSDV7M
USA Governance has been taken over.
All it took was 3 short years for a tv personality.
suzanne adamson Republican and their soft headed hatred did this.
don’t worry, it will be a Republican House soon.. it’s all good
Adi-LMNOP lmao. We the people will not stand for this. You don’t care about this country. Only about winning. That makes you a loser moron.
The party of Law & Order has only revealed itself to have always been fascist & repugnant.
Really? You claim that voter ID laws are wrong but democrat controlled Illinois found 500+ non citizens on voter roles and yet it’s the GOP wanting to prevent people who are foreign nationals from partaking in the right of actual us citizens. Can you vote in other country’s elections without being a citizen?
GOP: No witnesses required in trials.
The GOP has sunk to a new low.
@Leanne Griffith BS
@Kevin McNeil Actually they tried but Trump stonewalled; realizing that it would be months or even years before they finally won and got compliance with subpoenas, they had to act before he stole the next election. It was a long shot but we’ve all been caught offguard by the level of corruption in the Republican party.
Kay any democrat judge should get the electric chair immediately! There now we both look ridiculous, I didn’t want you feeling lonely while you’re waiting for the hotline to answer. 😜
Giovanni Soave these dems in particular are the reason for the saying “give an inch, take a mile.” I would give the dems zero that they ask for otherwise this will have no end.
@15k DOW 2022 Typical republican nazi remark
its quite revealing to see republicans convincing themselves of their own lies.
surely you joke, mein failüre either they take our vote or we take their heads.
@surely you joke, mein failüre True. Using the “logic” of this latest Republican argument, the President can suspend or postpone indefinitely the elections because *in his opinion* it would be in the best interest of the nation.
@Mainely Bingo. And this seems like their plan, since they are behaving in ways that will cause them to lose all elections come November.
The Dem’s were Fantastic but Trump has to many Goebbels’ Eichmann’s and Himmlers Protecting him . The Democrats hands are now tied . We are witnessing the Birth of a FASCIST State
The Fascist state started with Joe Biden helping write the Patriot Act, it continued with the cover up for Hillary and now the cover up of Biden, Obama spying on Trump, etc. Etc.
@Traci Thirteen
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
Martin Niemöller was a German Lutheran pastor who became the leader of a group of German clergymen opposed to Hitler. In 1937 he was arrested and eventually confined in Sachsenhausen and Dachau. He survived and was released in 1945 by the Allies.
Sue Ferreira
No one left…..but the Democrats!
@surely you joke, mein failüre well said.
@Sue Ferreira Thank you for reminding me about such powerful words.
Of course you won’t another, they’re afraid of trump. Trump has them licking his shoes, the one with toilet paper stuck on the bottom.
It is more important that we turn the Senate blue and keep the House blue than winning the presidency. Regardless of who is president if McConnell stays majority leader there is no future. Vote blue
If you can’t vote against McConnell you can donate to his challenger, Amy McGrath

Ed S 👍👍👍🙏
👍👌💙🌊🌊🌊🌊💙
Of course it’s hard TO find another REPUBLICAN put the PEOPLE it WON’T be hard TO pull the handle to VOTE BLUE
So, you’d rather vote for… Maybe, Joe Biden? Who got the man investigating his son fired because he held back money from Ukraine? Oh wow, you should go on the road with that funny show! Lol. It’s all about slight of hand. Look a squirrel! While the real threat goes unnoticed.
That’s assuming that our votes will not be changed by the machine.
History is great to read and study, not live. We are seeing tragic history live. We are seeing OUR republic in it’s latter days now. Lots of company, so that should make us feel better?
With 2019-nCoV looming in the background, and the way Trump hasn’t yet advocated shooting border refugees because they might be carrying disease, perhaps we’re looking at a plot right out of “V for Vendetta”.
Any republican who dose not vote for witnesses don’t deserve to be re elected
you mad, wanker?
Jimmy Skinner The democrats’ only mantra is “We still need that which we don’t have.” Meaning: Democrats are have nots! They have not a case, they have not a leg to stand on, they have not a chance of keeping as many seats in he House or the Senate, and they have not a chance of assuming the White House in 2021. Furthermore the dems have not a moral compass
As a *true* republican, I want to point out that Donald Trump is not a *republican* but a independent “posing” as one.
And the leadership of the GOP are traitors to the republic of America.
Vote them out 2020.
We need more old fashioned republicans who put the US constitution 1st
Get this man a beer 45oz
They ARE the new Republican party. Yes, things used to be different, but to claim that Trump and the Republicans in Congress are not “real Republicans” is silly. The new politics is supported by about 95% of the Republicans in Congress. They have never been more united than they are now.
MR intel and we will pick them off in November.
Vote them all out when possible
Voter ID !!
For sure and that is why a vote for the GOP is the smart bet.
The GOP DICTATORSHIP HAS BEEN BOUGHT.
Constitutional scholars of the country need to state strongly how absurd trump’s defendants’ Constitutional “argument” is.
VladI
This is getting out of hand. Time to vote on an acquittal as soon as possible.
Incorrect.
America is suffering from a severe lack of Patriotic Republicans.
You mean lack of honest Democrats, don’t you?
Oxymoron!
Oh its more than enough for anyone not commited to trump or their party more than they are to our nation. But there are now important people to hear from like bolton and parnas, who need to be heard, and there is information still being withheld by the white house.
Replublican senators in full disgrace to their country. My god help them.
I just know that if this were President Obama, there is no way Republicans would be okay with these crimes.
If we can’t get justice in the Senate then maybe it falls to prayer in God’s justice because that will always prevail over corruption, coverups and lies.
We need to grab pitchforks and torches to march in protest.
dnc/KKK !!!
And yet no one wants to be the person to schedule that March. Tell me when and I’ll be there! TIME FOR ACTION.
@monica luketich Saturdays in front of your state capitals or your senators place of work like Hong Kong’s people.
@William M thank you. I will check that out. I will be in the same town as one of his offices on Saturday.
