Senate GOP vows to quash impeachment articles
By Alexander Bolton - 09/24/19 06:25 PM EDT



Senate Republicans are vowing to quickly quash any articles of impeachment that pass the House and warn that Democrats will feel a political backlash if they go forward and impeach President Trump.

Republican senators say there are no grounds to impeach Trump and are daring Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to embark on what they dismiss as a fool’s errand that will turn off swing voters.

“My response to them is go hard or go home,” said Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which has jurisdiction over impeachment.  “If you want to impeach him, stop talking. Do it. Do it. Go to Amazon, buy a spine and do it. And let’s get after it.”


“I think the public will feel like it’s more harassment,” he predicted.

...hmmm I'm not quite so confident that some of the GOP Senators aren't going to go along with impeachment.
