@kturet I was making a larger point about the downside of the Democrats going alone on impeachment. The question was meant as rhetorical rather than a replacement for research. I'm sorry I had missed Kinzinger when I asked the question since I though the answer was Zero and not One. — PolitiTweet.org

@kturet Your hostility is puzzling. It turns out there is exactly one Republican in this category, Kinzinger. — PolitiTweet.org

@thegarance Thanks. It's a start. But I really wish there were two dozen or so House Republicans. And maybe 8-10 Senate Republicans, even if Trump won't be convicted. — PolitiTweet.org

Has a single House Republican come out for impeaching Trump? I would think that this effort would only have lasting credibility if a prominent Republican like, say, Liz Cheney was on board. The point is to rise above partisanship to show Trump for what he is. — PolitiTweet.org

Patriotism requires every major golfer in America to organize a 12-day tournament that is rigged so that Trump can win. It will keep him busy and let Trump emulate Nero dominating the Olympics. — PolitiTweet.org

@danepps Sadly, I agree. That said, I also respect Amash's integrity, courage and early disgust with Trump. — PolitiTweet.org

@danepps I would be ecstatic if we had a political party that strongly disagreed with the Democrats on taxes, spending and government regulation. But agreed with them on the rule of law, integrity and antipathy to anything that smacks of authoritarianism. — PolitiTweet.org

Serious question for everyone urging the impeachment of Trump: What do you do when his supporters ask for 10 days to prepare a defense in the Senate? — PolitiTweet.org

@politicoroger Put me in Camp #2. The 25th amendment is unworkable and a rush impeachment trial will take days to set up. — PolitiTweet.org

"Garbo Talks" was a late 1920s headline about the talkies. "Merrick Garland Talks" is today's headline after Mitch McConnell's refusal to grant him a hearing in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org

@evefairbanks Agree. But I just want to stress that it isn't much of a personal sacrifice to miss the last 311 hours of the Trump presidency. — PolitiTweet.org

Me in @newrepublic: "For four years, I have avoided resorting to 1930s parallels, tempting as these historical tropes sometimes were. But yesterday all I could think of were the German industrialists who coddled Adolf Hitler for their own cynical reasons." https://t.co/Sw7G1GK7dZ — PolitiTweet.org

My latest tonight: "As for Trump, his cuckoo coup attempts in recent days should be seen as the final exit ramp on the road to infamy. He is more likely to be commemorated with a statue at the federal penitentiary in Allenwood than a bust on Mt. Rushmore." https://t.co/twOk3Pyx3P — PolitiTweet.org
