The real reason these Republican Senators don’t want to convict Trump

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

These Republican Senators don’t want to have to take the heat for being the ones to remove Trump from the political stage, because they know Trump will be convicted at his criminal trial anyway. This is an abdication of duty, and these Republican Senators should resign.

– There’s no one tougher than former Senator Claire McCaskill. If she’s in tears after watching today’s impeachment trial footage, it’s okay for you to be in tears as well.

– Republican Senator Mike Lee has raised an objection to the fact that his name got dragged into the discussion, but he has no objection to Trump inciting a domestic terrorist attack. The Republicans couldn’t have their priorities any more screwed up than they do.
