Reasons to get impeached are not spelled out, so there is a disagreement whether the charges brought forward by the house are impeachable offenses, an according to the GOP the reasons have to be even more critical in an election year.

Senator Lamar Alexander (R) says additional witnesses aren't needed because the House proved their case, but doesn't think Trump should be removed.

This means we have bipartisan agreement that Trump is guilty.

The president will be acquitted but certainly not exonerated.
Sure, does that make you feel better that you lost? Lol, snowflakes...

The parts I listened to said that. They were saying he asked for Ukraine to investigate Bidens……….. but that in itself was not impeachable...…...how is that "hand waving and wacky"?

Well . . democrats kind of did the same thing with Clinton?

I take that to mean impeachment is fairly toothless. Neither party, no matter WHAT, is going to vote their own president out of office. Might as well just take it out of the constitution .

That's how I see it.
