Explain where we get 20 patriotic GOP Senators with consciences. Failing that, where we get a GOP Senator with the gravitas and moral authority of Goldwater to tell Trump he has to resign. In the absence of either of those, explain how the country is better off after McConnell acquits, Trump gloats, and this regime figures out that it really does have carte blanche.

The Charge of the Light Brigade was "magnificent, but it was not war." Impeaching Trump may or may not be magnificent, but it is certainly not politics. Pelosi knows this.
