They see this thing coming at them & they can't figure out how to save their own asses after having protected Trump's ass for 3 years!! That's especially true of GOP Senators!

Maybe someone from inside is trying to help expose him.

Weve started down that big first roller coaster fall. I think the times come for those with a conscience to start talking...i hope

is also pretty disliked here. IF BETO had actually taken more moderate positions he may have won. Kudoos on integrity for BETO, buttttt.

Cornyn is less dis likable than Cruz which means he will be tough to knock off. If the top of the ticket is competitive in TX, the % will be under 5. In a wildcard environment (impeachment, recession), it can be extremely close.

to the people who passed the info along to the whistleblower. Chances are those people will also be speaking to Congress very soon.

The words came from the horses mouth! Or should I say the horses ass' mouth. Trump doesn't need to bug himself like Tricky Dick Nixon, he will shoot his mouth off and shoot himself in the foot at the same time. His big ego makes him think that laws and integrity don't apply to him.
Trump also told the world in his NBC interview with Lester Holt that he obstructed justice when he fired Comey to stop "that Russia thing."

A Trumpian Senator running for re-election in a state where his guy has an approval rating of 39%. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.
