Senators pave the way for the president's acquittal with a 51-49 vote against witnesses in his impeachment trial despite new bombshell from John Bolton's book

Donald Trump's impeachment trial will end just after 4pm on Wednesday after a dramatic day Friday in which Republicans triumphed by voting 51 to 49 against calling witnesses - but then agreed to delay a final vote until after the president's State of the Union address.
The Senate voted to reject a Democratic call to hear from witnesses at President Trump's impeachment trial - a critical procedural win for the president and the first formal vote signaling his likely acquittal.
Two Republicans, Mitt Romney and Susan Collins, crossed the aisle to join Democrats in their push for witnesses - but it was not enough to prevail.
Mitch McConnell's glee was evident as he left, and Trump headed for Mar-a-Lago with a thumbs-up and a Super Bowl party planned.

Ya but..."He Is Impeached Forever." And neither Donald Trump nor any of his followers gives a rat's. In fact....he's gonna wear this as a badge of honor...an indication of the character and depravity of those who instigated and promoted it. And as for Mitt. You are done, fool.
