Any RINO Republican who legitimizes this sham impeachment should be thrown out of the Republican Party. Period!
Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) is reportedly working with a fairly small group of Republican senators to garner support for impeachment witnesses.
The moderate Republican, who signaled that she is open to witnesses in a Senate impeachment trial, told reporters on Friday that she is working with a fairly small group of GOP senators as part of an effort to solidify support for witnesses in the impeachment trial in the Senate.
I am hopeful that we can reach an agreement on how to proceed with the trial that will allow the opportunity for both the House and the presidents counsel if they choose to do so, Collins said, according to Bangor Daily News.
While Collins did not indicate how many GOP senators comprised her group, she stressed that lawmakers should be completely open to calling witnesses.
Collins, along with Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), solidified Majority Leader Mitch McConnells (R-KY) upper hand in the Senate after agreeing that the Senate should follow the precedent of former President Bill Clintons impeachment trial and make a decision on witnesses after opening arguments, rather than reaching a pre-trial agreement, which Democrats pushed.
The process moved to a period during which the Senate debated and voted that three witnesses should be deposed. I believe that this process the Clinton approach worked well, Collins told reporters, according to the Hill.

If she and the other RINOS aren't thrown out they should be voted out!! How anybody can look at the evidence and the shampeachment the Democrats have cobbled together is a mystery to me! The absolute waste of time, resources and money is a disgrace!
