Sen. Chuck Schumer: “I hope, pray and believe there’s a decent chance that four Republicans will join us — if they do we will have a fair trial'
he would not cut short the impeachment trial and has warned his colleagues against making any motions during the trial that could divide the caucus.
"My No. 1 goal is not let the speaker of the House become the majority leader of the Senate," Graham said. "If we don't get the articles this week, then we need to take matters into our own hands." House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union that the House does not plan to hold the articles of impeachment indefinitely, but that refraining from sending them over to the Senate has “flushed out where Mitch McConnell is coming from” and has “required senators to go on record.”
“If the president is acquitted through a sham trial, through a mock trial where there are no witnesses, where everything is covered up, that will not stand him well with the American people,” Schumer warned.
