Senator Josh Hawley: We’re Watching The Democrats’ Case For Impeachment Just Fall Apart (VIDEO)
The Democrats’ case for impeachment has been flimsy from the start.
This week, it got even weaker.
Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri appeared on Tucker Carlson’s show on Wednesday night and said it’s all falling apart.
From FOX News:
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., told “Tucker Carlson Tonight” Wednesday that although some Republican senators are considering voting in favor of calling witnesses in President Trump’s impeachment trial, none appear interested in voting to convict him on the articles presented by Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif.
“Let’s be honest here, there are a lot of senators on the Republican side who do not like the president,” Hawley said. “They would be happy to vote against him … if they can find grounds to.”
“They can’t find any grounds to because there aren’t any, and the longer the House managers talk, the more obvious that becomes.”
Host Tucker Carlson asked Hawley about the possibility that three Democratic senators — Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona and Doug Jones of Alabama — could potentially vote with Republicans to acquit Trump, and defy the apparent wishes of Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.
“I think it’s very possible, Tucker. I think what it tells you is that they just don’t have a case,” he said of Schiff and the other Democratic impeachment managers.

Hawley has been providing updates on Twitter:
Dershowitz eviscerates the Dems’ case tonight. They have not charged an impeachable offense or alleged impeachable conduct. Period. Let’s vote

After listening to the Dems’ 20+ hours of argument and the rebuttal arguments from @realDonaldTrump, I’ve got lots of questions for the Dems. Like this one: Why did Schiff lie about his contact with the “whistleblower”? More to come!

Questioning for 5 hours so far in the Senate. Adam Schiff just said House Dems’ case is about bribery. But they didn’t allege bribery in the Articles! Or extortion. Or any unlawful conduct of any kind. But we should overturn an election? Schiff & Co getting desperate

It’s time for Senate Republicans to end this.
The American people have had enough.
