Divisions among Senate Republicans over how to handle Wednesday’s debate over the impeachment articles against DHS Secretary Alex Mayorkas are threatening to cause a mess and could make the immediate dismissal that much more likely, Punchbowl News reports.
“I don’t think we should be negotiating with the arsonists here. If Chuck Schumer wants to blow up impeachment trials forever, he ought to own that,” said MAGA Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt. Fellow Missourian Josh Hawley was more resigned, saying “The outcome is the same either way. If we do a bunch of talky-talk and then we vote to table or dismiss, it’s the same thing functionally.”
