Again, no mystery. Manchin has few worries, for the Senate is a majority Republican, so the situation makes it clear for him. He can SAFELY say no to impeachment, and he will, otherwise, West Virginia will send him to hell in the voter box. He has no choice.
And I will venture a guess that the Republicans will not permit it to move forward within the Senate. They will kill the effort outright, or face being primaried in their next election for certain.
The patience of the American people is being exhausted. Congress is worthless, and they know it. Either they start representing the American people, or face an early retirement from elected life.
WE ARE LONG OVERDUE FOR TERM LIMITS, AND NO PENSIONS, NO GOLDEN PARACHUTES. SERVE AND GET OUT.
There is no such thing as statesmen any longer. They do and accomplish so little that almost no one in America thinks they are worth a good BM.
