WaPo: Sen. Rand Paul at least 45 Republicans are ready to dismiss the impeachment charges

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a leading ally of President Trump, said Wednesday that 45 Republicans are ready to dismiss the charges against the president and he would keep pushing to rally a majority of GOP senators to end the impeachment trial.
“There are 45, with about five to eight wanting to hear a little more,” Paul said in an interview with The Washington Post. “I still would like to dismiss it, but there aren’t the votes to do it just yet.”
With support from other Trump allies, Paul said he would continue to pressure his colleagues in the coming days to move on from the trial and listening to the House’s Democratic managers, including Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.).
“I will push it at some point,” Paul said. “The more Adam Schiff speaks, the more we become unified.”
Republicans hold a 53-47 majority in the Senate.

They say this outwardly,but their maneuvering suggests they actually want this thing to go forward. They're gunning up to take some frickers down.

Could you imagine being forced to sit in a chair and suffer through that rambling nonsense being spewed by Schiff? Hour after hour after hour?
This thing could be over by Wednesday (if not sooner)

If that's not torture as defined by the Geneva Convention then nothing is.

We don't want a dismissal. We want acquittal.
Full exoneration.

It doesn't really matter. They're going to impeach him in the house again.

This "impeachment" is a sham and should be treated as such. Dismiss it immediately for the rabid, anti-American garbage that it is.

Get a list of the 8, tell them that the RNC will actively be funding their competitors.
