Sen. Lindsey Graham said Republicans would hold a full impeachment trial because they do not have the votes to dismiss charges against President Trump immediately.
Source: (Washington Examiner) We don’t have the votes': Graham says push to dismiss impeachment articles right away is 'dead'"Have you given up on the idea that the Senate Republican majority is going to vote to dismiss this case right away?" Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Graham Sunday.
"That's dead for practical purposes," the South Carolina Republican responded. "The idea of dismissing the case early on is not going to happen. We don’t have the votes for that."
With this loss, it appears Trump & McConnel have fully capitulated to actually having a trial.
Looks like Round 1 went to Pelosi, and soon we'll see who gets Round 2 (witnesses).
