TBH, this seems like positive news: if Trump is having to call Moscow Mitch repeatedly to (one supposes) shore up GOP Senate “support” - by which I’m guessing they mean (in order of desirability):
1. Preemptive derailment of any Bill of Impeachment
2. Stonewalling of same to the same effect.
3. Vigorous blocking/delaying tactics if it comes to a Senate trial.
4. Promise of a bloc “No” Vote at trial
5. Promise of minimalized “Yes” votes as long as they don’t get to 67
The WH must have realized they’re screwed in the House, and are likely getting desperate to ensure an “exoneration” in the Senate.
