Party over country continues.

New - Some Republicans warning McConnell not to vote for Trump’s conviction. “If he does, I don’t know if he can stay as leader,” one senior GOP senator told me. “No,” Ron Johnson said when asked if he could support him as leader if he backs conviction. https://t.co/LrPEn2f9eW

Asked what it would mean for party if Republicans convicted Trump, Tuberville said: “It wouldn’t be good. The whole thing is about a team, and if you start separating the team, then it just tears it up.” He added: “You’re going to impeach a guy who’s not even in town anymore?”
