President Trump should gift Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (KY) a Rolls-Royce and a G-5 private jet. It won’t happen. But that’s how thankful POTUS should be.

Due to Republican control of the Senate, Donald Trump will most likely not be impeached and booted from office – and it’s all because of Mitch’s leadership. “Fake News” CNN has the scoop

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is expected to hold a final vote to acquit President Donald Trump, should he be impeached, when a majority of senators believe his trial has run its course instead of holding a vote on dismissing the articles of impeachment, two Republican senators told CNN on Wednesday.

Republicans want to have a vote on acquittal — to clear the President of the charges against him — not simply rely on a 51-vote threshold procedural motion to dismiss the hotly disputed case.

The Constitution mandates 67 votes are required to convict the President and remove him from office, a barrier widely considered too high to be reached in this case.

McConnell was asked what he’d do if a Supreme Court seat was up for grabs in 2020, a presidential election year.

Of course, he was asked this question because the GOP-controlled Senate refused in 2016 to confirm Obama’s pick, Merrick Garland, saying the new president should get to pick.

It was a tactic that worked.

More context:

It’s so sloppy that this is being reported as a reversal. It really isn’t. It’s exactly what McConnell said all along.

In 2016, Sen. McConnell argued that with a divided government (Dem White House, GOP Senate), the voters should decide who gets to appoint J. Scalia’s replacement.

That first condition does not apply. We don’t have a divide WH/Senate anymore.
