Kill switch

Recommended Posts

In other words, the big picture here is that it seems as though the Senate will move forward with an actual trial—details on a number of fronts on that as of yet to be determined—but that there will be one thing that is clear: If Schiff or the Democrats try anything untoward like they did in the House, the president and the Senate have the option to shut the whole thing down and blow it all up on them. That means Republicans hold the upper hand, and should things get crazy—while there are not currently enough votes to dismiss the trial or outright off the bat acquit Trump—after Democrat partisan gamesmanship there likely would be enough votes to dismiss the whole thing. Bad behavior, in a partisan way, from people such as Schiff and Nadler and other Democrats could drive more Republicans toward the motion to dismiss—the kill switch—if that ever becomes necessary.

If the repubs shut it down in the senate they will face losing their seats. They even know this.

 

And that was the whole dem strategy all along. They knew that's the only hope they had.

So basically republicans have Trump by the balls to do whatever they want if Trump doesnt want to get removed from office? 

Nope.   Trump is 10x's more popular than Senate Republicans.  They know if they remove him they are absolutely done.

They dont give a fuck, they would much rather have a puppet like Pence to do their bidding.

Maybe so but Trump's got them more than they have him.   They remove him most of them wouldn't get re-elected again.  

If it wasn't for about 4-5 RINO's this would get dismissed tomorrow.
