MEDIA:

For the love of God, please stop saying the GOP will not convict, just make the argument that they should. Just keep saying that. Just keep saying that they should convict. Don't make it easy for anyone to do the wrong thing.

Re: the above: YES.  It’s like “the missing stair” argument– yes we know this guy is a horrible douchebag who treats women terribly, but that’s just the way he is so we can’t do anything about it.  NO.  He doesn’t do anything about it because you act like it’s ok.  It’s not OK for Republicans to not convict.  Don’t let them be missing stairs.  Any Republican who doesn’t convict needs to cause SHOCK, not complacency.  (Also:  Cruz needs to resign months ago.)

Any Senator that DOESN'T do the right thing here, REGARDLESS of what the media says, has NO EXCUSE. None.

Senators have to choose:
(a) Pro-sedition and Treason
(b) Impeach and Convict with force

This is a pretty wild thread.
