What motivated those Republicans to vote guilty?
Burr, (NC), Sasse, (NE), Romney, (UT), Collins,(ME), Murkowski, (AK), Cassidy,(LA), Toomey, (PA)
I have learned to hate all traitors, and there is no disease 定语从句that I spit on more than treachery. Aeschylus
Is it their own moral narcissism as Roger Simon suspects, a misplaced sense of their own moral righteousness? It can’t be 表语从句because their constituents wanted them to vote guilty. They will likely each be censured in their home states for their betrayal.
Is it their own insecurity re: their membership in the swamp? Is it money? Were they somehow paid for their guilty votes? That would surprise no one.
We’ve long known 宾语从句that Romney’s hatred for Trump ate his brain, destroyed any core values 定语从句he ever had, 状语从句if he had them. Murkowski has never been a reliable conservative nor has Susan Collins. They are both Democrats in their heart of hearts. Cassidy was a Democrat all his life until 2006, so he too is a fake republican.
As for Toomey and Burr? Pick any of the above suggestions but the most obvious answer is 表语从句they are both moral narcissists. They each probably think 宾语从句they are securing some sort of positive legacy, but their names will be infamous. How could they get things so wrong?
They live in the bubbles of their own making. They each seem to believe宾语从句 they are superior to their colleagues 定语从句who voted not guilty 状语从句when in fact they are just garden variety arrogant pretenders. They’re political hacks without a shred of decency.
Oh, they think 宾语从句they’re the most decent people amongst the swells, but they are just cheap reproductions in a long line of cheap reproductions. The American Congress has a long and storied history of seating scoundrels. Perhaps they took their cues from the Lincoln Project; that would make perfect sense. Like-minded reprobates generally find each other in their common causes.
This second sham of an impeachment was clearly unconstitutional, 定语从句which is 表语从句why Chief Justice Roberts wanted no part of it, 状语从句even though he loathes Trump. It would have been nice 状语从句if he had released a public statement 分词定语asserting that fact, but he is something of a cowardly cad himself 状语从句as we all now know.
The Democrats have not been happy with their phony win since November 3rd. They know宾语从句 the win is suspect and they fear Trump’s popularity among his millions of supporters状语从句 because they know宾语从句 if he runs again, he would win and they simply cannot abide him or another outsider 定语从句who might again seek to rid the government of the deep corruption 定语从句that characterizes it, defines it.
主语从句What is remarkable is表语从句 that there are any ethical, fervent supporters of their oath to the Constitution in DC at all. But there are: Ted Cruz, Matt Gaetz, Ron Johnson, Jim Jordan, Lee Zeldin, Elise Stefanik, Steve Scalise, Debbie Lesko, Marsha Blackburn, James Imhoff, Mike Lee, Louis Gohmert, John Kennedy to name some of the few.
名词从句That any Republicans took this impeachment show seriously is sad. They should have all ignored it for the low-rent sham it was. Trump was a truly great President; history will bear that out in the end. Biden is doing nothing but undoing all the good 定语从句Trump got started. Like the rest of the left, Biden hates Trump more than he loves America. He will see it destroyed in order to blame the former president. But it won’t work. The more damage he does, the more the American people miss Trump.
状语从句Even though he voted to acquit Trump, the now-we-know-how-odious-he-is Mitch McConnell proceeded to malign him on the floor of the Senate. He too is a turncoat of the worst kind. He paddles along pretending to be on the side of right 状语从句when all the time he, like Bill Barr, is working to sabotage the most-revered President since Reagan. McConnell knows 宾语从句he was only re-elected on Trump’s coattails but he shows not a bit of gratitude.
The same goes for Kevin McCarthy and a slew of other traitors in the House. 名词从句That McCarthy chose to support Liz Cheney after her thoroughly outrageously disingenuous statement 分词定语blaming Trump for the January 6 breach of the Capitol is a window into his lack of loyalty.
Like Lindsey Graham in the Senate, McCarthy likes to walk the dotted line, see 宾语从句which way the wind is blowing. Like Graham, he gets it wrong sometimes, like this time. Sure, Graham voted the right way 分词状语while at the same time pushing the self-serving Nikki Haley on donors. Most conservatives figured out long ago 宾语从句that she does not support their America first values. Now she has proven it by trashing Trump the day before the impeachment vote. How did Graham get this so wrong? Perhaps he has put his finger in the wind so often 状语从句he can no longer discern which way it is blowing.
The nonsense 定语从句that took place over these past days of a pretend impeachment, the absurd hyperbole 分词定语spewed by the “managers,” their blatant refusal to acknowledge their own party’s actual calls for violence in opposition to Trump over the last four years, most especially throughout the summer as BLM and Antifa did billions of dollars in damage to numerous cities with impunity, was an historical disgrace.
Their constant reference to our Constitution is a joke; they have no reverence for our founding document, none at all. Those seven treasonous faux Republicans voted with the pro-violence, anti-law-enforcement crowd. President Trump, as everyone knows well, was and remains a fervent supporter of our police 状语从句while the left was calling for their defunding if not their dissolution. It is safe 不定式主语to say that the 75 – 80m Trump supporters now have as much contempt for those seven collaborators 状语从句as they do for the Biden administration as it so diligently works to undo all the good 定语从句Trump accomplished in four short years. They are all of a piece with the left, one 定语从句that is elitist at its core without a shred of concern for the American people.
“A nation can survive its fools, even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within… for the traitor appears not to be a traitor… he rots the soul of a nation.. .he infects the body politic状语从句 so that it can no longer resist.” Cicero
