A group of Republican senators met privately with Donald Trump's legal team representing the former president in his impeachment trial to discuss "strategy" ahead of the defence argument on Friday.

Senators have sworn an oath to "do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws" during the impeachment trial.

"Republican party" and "justice" don't even belong in the same goddamn phrase.

They really are going to run Trump in 2024 aren't they? They know the MAGA won't support them without him as proven by Georgia trumpers sitting that out because Trump told them their votes were pointless anyway and that it was rigged.

Don't forget the paired story of "15 jurors can't be bothered to show up for trial, deem it waste of time knowing full well that they're voting to acquit no matter what".

They should be tried and executed for treason.

Violating their oaths and conspiring with someone who committed sedition.

This is obviously bs, but maybe it's also kinda a good sign? Why bother talking "strategy" if repubs were going to rubber stamp the acquittal? Maybe they're thinking the impeachment managers did a good enough job that the defense has to put up something compelling or they'll have to convict?

Wishful thinking, but whatever

@tremain07

this is my fear. They will run him in 2024 and of course he will win because this time around he will exert far more undue pressure on state officials to cast out votes from blue districts.

then he will spend 4 years undoing everything biden did, which will make us look like an unstable joke to the world (every new president undoes everything the previous one did, including international obligations) and he will take actions to cement himself in power for 2, maybe 3 more terms.

then you will have the Stephen millers of the GOP making all sorts of racial policies to try to revert demographics back to the 1950s, well basically become apartheid South Africa

Well McConnell did say they were coordinating defense step by step with the White House during the last trial, so it's really not that surprising

Lmfaaooooo

Why are the GOP still so obsessed with Donald? Hes gone, you don't have to kiss his ass and bow to his every whim anymore.


Because he is modern day conservatism's end goal. He is their perfect Cell, if you will.

Meh. If this followed the rules of a regular trial, every last "juror" would have been excused, the judges would have recused themselves and it would have been granted a change of venue. The problem here is that there is literally no other venue for a federal impeachment hearing.
