McConnell: We've set a very unfortunate precedent here. This means that the Senate can ignore, in effect, the House's impeachment. It doesn't make any difference whether our friends on the other side thought he should have been impeached or not. He was. And by doing what we just did, we have, in effect, ignored the directions of the house, which were to have a trial that no evidence, no procedure. This is a day that's not a proud day in the history of the Senate
@ChadPergram He wants to complain precedent after what he did to Merrick Garland and Amy Coney Barrett 😂😂😂 #SCOTUS
@ChadPergram McConnell is aware of the precedent he set, just like the Supreme Court justice seat and a presidential impeachment he blew off.
@ChadPergram The Senate was within its prerogative to dismiss. Judges can dismiss charges in criminal cases or civil for insufficiency. No reason the Senate cannot do the same. It should NOT be required to waste time and resources. JMO
@ChadPergram @unseen1_unseen Well what did you do to whip the votes, it’s as much your failure as theirs.
@ChadPergram Wow, the Turtle finally speaks for the citizens.
@ChadPergram @JWilcox111 Just this day — when over the last four years has there been a proud day?
@ChadPergram The vast majority of Republicans tried to dismiss the impeachment against Trump - even though they stood on the floor of Congress right after Jan 6th & said Trump was responsible But enough Democrats AND REPUBLICANS knew an impeachment trial was appropriate for Trump's crimes
@ChadPergram @mickleschris22 And then he high fived everyone
@ChadPergram And Garland should have been given a hearing.
@ChadPergram So when they impeach people on our side, we can just ignore them. That’s the rules, right?
