Just roll the Tape

I think McConnell wants him convicted. We'll see if Mitch can quietly sway about 16 of his GOP colleagues. He's probably working on it as we speak.

I think you are right. McConnell is retiring, he is owned by the CCP, and he hates Trump's guts. We will see how many GOP Senators are willing to risk their careers by voting to convict with zero evidence. My guess is that they will be able to retire very comfortably if they cast a "Yes" vote.

It is a sad day when neither major American political party can field a candidate to beat Trump in a fair nomination fight or a general election and are so afraid of one man's popularity that they will resort to an illegal impeachment and conviction to prevent him from running again at age 78.

I do not believe that there would be a Senate trial if McConnell and Schumer were not confident that they have the votes before the trial. They are underestimating how angry Trump supporters are and will remain through the 2024 elections.

Take this to the bank about Mitch. Everything he does is based upon what he thinks is best for him. Can't stand the guy but he's very good at what he does .  Very shrewd politically.  We'll see how this turns out for him.  And yeah, I have no doubt he hates Trump's guts. My guess is that if Mitch wants Trump convicted(which I think is likely), then he will get the votes he needs. That's how he works. Like you said, he may already know he will have his votes.
