"So let's be clear. The house's vote yesterday was not some neutral judgment that Democrats came to with great reluctance. It was the predetermined end of a partisan crusade that began before president trump was even nominated, let alone sworn in." #MitchMcConnell pic.twitter.com/McV1HqQR64

"Mr. President, it looks like the prosecutors are getting cold feet….They said impeachment was so urgent that it could not even wait for due process, but now they are content to sit on their hands. This is really comical." #MitchMcConnell pic.twitter.com/6RF8scWCNt
