TheDemocrats starting impeaching realDonaldTrump before he took office & how many have admitted they had plans to impeach due to the fake Russian collusion. They will keep trying & trying.

A failed dream!

Chuckie is the biggest clown in the Senate

They should be embarrassed if they don’t step up...

Well that won’t happen so what their next move?

Ok Chuck, now sit and pray!!!!

Wouldn't that be only 4% of senators? And he's pleading with you for it to happen. LoL

Schumer ‘hopeful’ some Republicans will join calls for witnesses and documentsSen. Chuck Schumer: “I hope, pray and believe there’s a decent chance that four Republicans will join us — if they do we will have a fair trial' There’s nothing fair about the last 3 years! SenSchumer . SenSchumer stop being naive. Any strategy involving republicans will fail. Stop playing by outdated rules and courtesies while they play hardball as usual. Schumer should instead do a head count of how many Democrats will vote against impeachment because the House vote has created precedence for a witch-hunt and overturning a landslide electoral victory with a fake impeachment!
