Sen. Susan Collins Can Take a Long Walk Off a Short Pier
Every now and again, Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) tries to act like she’s an actual politician who is open to hearing all the evidence before making a decision. It’s a masterful piece of work.
Like that time during Supreme Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, where Collins acted like she was concerned about his abhorrent and predatory behavior.
Remember how she acted like she gave a shit about stories of him reportedly sexually assaulting a classmate during a house party?
And then she did this nearly 45-minute grandstanding speech on the floor that ended with: “Mr. President, I will vote to confirm Judge Kavanaugh.”
So Sen. Collins can go fuck herself because she’s doing it again.
She’s claiming that she’s “open to witnesses” in the upcoming Senate impeachment trial and even criticized “Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for working closely with the White House.”
“I think it’s premature to decide who should be called until we see the evidence that is presented and get the answers to the questions that we senators can submit through the Chief Justice to both sides,” Collins is full of shit. .
Currently, the impeachment is at an impasse; Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) would like to call for acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney and former national security adviser John Bolton to testify, because it’s a GODDAMN TRIAL!
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has delayed sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate until there’s a fair trial process in place.
