Rand Paul forced a vote in the Senate today declaring the impeachment trial for Trump was unconstitutional. It failed but only by a 55-45 vote. So only 5 Republican senators voted it was constitutional to hold an impeachment trial for Trump after he incited a violent insurrection to overturn the election and our government, where his own vice president and others were at risk of being executed.
This isn't the final vote - the trial hasn't started yet but we can see where it's headed. I never thought there would be enough Republicans to convict but this is truly abysmal. The 5 Republicans who voted that it was constitutional to hold the trial were: Susan Collins (Maine) Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) Mitt Romney (Utah) Ben Sasse (Nebraska) Pat Toomey (Pennsylvania)
