A report from the Huff post this week shows that not only do most of the Republicans who voted not
to convict Donald Trump in the Senate, impeachment trial, they don't regret their
decisions. But plenty of them also say without hesitation, yeah. I'd vote for him again. Let's
go down the list here. First you have Republican Senator, Tommy Tuberville, who of course is the
junior Senator from the state of Alabama, former college football coach. He said, what's he gonna
do? He told them not to go down there and be destructive. What else are you gonna do?
He added that he feels 100% confident about his vote to acquit, the former president in
his February, 2021 impeachment trial. Then you have Republican Senator Mike bran, who says I'm
okay with those decisions. Those are things you do with the information you have at the time.
So Torville was already making excuses like, Hey, Trump did everything.
He could, at least Mike bran is like, all right, I'll admit other stuff has come out,
obviously. But you know, you work with what you got at the time that you got it. Right.
See, Mike, that's actually kind of where you're wrong a little bit though,
because it was your job during the trial to get all of this stuff to come out. Right?
Think about it for a moment. Folks. If we had had a real impeachment trial, all of this stuff that
the January 6th committee is uncovering, would've been uncovered in that trial, but Republicans
didn't want a real trial. They wanted it done quickly. They wanted a show trial. You know,
we couldn't get the evidence in there. We couldn't do this. We couldn't do that. They
put all these constraints on us. And so we ended up with this sham of M of an impeachment trial.
That of course got Donald Trump. Quit it again. So no like, oh, with it's all the facts we had at the
time. Yeah. It's all the facts you had at the time because you didn't go looking for the facts. You
idiot Republican Senator John Cornin says, I think we all sort of knew and know what happened. I,
I don't know how many minds have changed because I think we knew the basic facts.
All right. So even Cornin is out here, you know, disputing Mike bran, who says, well, we knew,
we knew at the time, corn's like, no, we all pretty much knew what happened. And we all still
acquitted him many way because you know what? Screw it, nothing matters in life anymore.
at least corn's honest about it for once in his life. He's like, no, we, we knew,
I mean, it was pretty crystal clear what happened? We just didn't care.
Republican Senator Roy blunt from Missouri, of course, who is retiring this year.
He said the January 6th committee's hearings have served a purpose,
but he maintained that quote. The purpose of impeachment is to remove somebody from office.
And then he declined to comment when asked about Trump's actions during the riot.
So he is like, yes, this is what impeachment is for. All right. I gotta go guys. Bye. Like you,
You didn't answer the question, buddy. Um, you're like, yes, we, we have a committee and
they're serving a purpose. And impeachment is when you remove somebody from office and, uh,
whoa, would you look at that? I gotta get outta here, guys. I'll see you later. Like what?
That's not even a response. You're just reading Wikipedia entries to these, to these people asking
you questions. But folks, once again, this is what we're dealing with with the Republican party.
Even after all of this information that has come out about what Trump did,
the fact that the DOJ is criminally investigating him. These Republicans still sit there
with a straight face and tell reporters like, no, I think we did the right thing.
Yeah, I'm good with it. Mm-hmm totally awesome. Great. Wonderful. And then, uh,
as I said, a lot of them still say like, yeah, if he's the nominee in 2024 vote firm, again,
they've learned nothing. They don't care. They don't care about any of this. They don't care
about any of the information. All they care about is whether or not their team wins or loses because
politics for a lot of these people, a lot of people in DC, hell a lot of people in this country
is nothing more than team sports. It's a win, lose situation. And you always want to be on
the winning side, no matter how bad your team is, as long as you win, it's all that matters.
