Cocaine Mitch McConnell is notorious for keeping his caucus in line and knowing when he has the votes before making a move. Former RNC chair Michael Steele, though, says there are more Republicans senators than you might think ready and willing to break with McConnell and give the Democrats their way in the Senate trial. This news comes from MSNBC’s Ari Melber:
"The number is bigger than four."

I'll believe it when they vote that way, and not a second sooner.

And on MSNBC…

“MSNBC Republican” is a thing for a reason.

I was watching at lunchtime and they were openly speculating about how many Rs might vote with the Dems and they were throwing around numbers like 7 and 8. They are actively misleading their viewers.

Lol…there's a reason Steele is at MSNBC instead of the RNC.

I heard that the number was less than 1. Let's see who is closer.

I highly doubt it

Wrong. Be lucky if there are 2.

Psst.
The number is zero. https://t.co/hQR8VHtBDj

This is Resistence Porn. It's fiction.@MichaelSteele is a big ol' clown at this point. https://t.co/hQR8VHtBDj

NEWSFLASH: The LAST people any Republican Senator would confide in about their vote on the impeachment trial would be Bill Kristol and Michael Steele.
These guys are GRIFTERS. They don't have any connections anymore that would share this kind of info with them.

The Democrats sure are hitting the “praying hands” emoji pretty hard over in Melber’s comments.
