Actually no I'm not done talking about this. The reason so many of them are voting to dismiss the charges is because they think its unfair to pursue impeachment now that Trump is out of the Whitehouse. He's not in the role anymore, they say, so what does it matter.

This is such a fucking dangerous precedent, holy shit.

If they pursue this, it means that any president can do whatever the FUCK they want in their last days, and there is a precedent for letting them get away with it. As long as they're out of the Whitehouse before impeachment charges can be brought against them, it means they get off Scott free. It also means that if a president does something impeachable, and then quits, that theyre also able to dodge accountability and legal ramifications.

This sets such a dangerous precedent, you guys.

If you have a Republican Senator, now is a VERY GOOD TIME to call them and chew them out about this.
