I think it’s a toss up. I think Mitch McConnell will vote to convict. I think there are a number of additional Republicans who will. I think they will get close to the number (17?) needed but I’m not sure they will get all the way there.

Trump showed what he is really like; I.e a cow towing wuss when he sees that he might actually be in trouble. He puts on this facade of toughness, but as we saw over the past week or so, when it comes down to it he gets scared and walks everything back and throws people under the bus and tries to change his tune. Because he did that, it just might be enough to save him from conviction. However, he’s now forever on the record as the wuss who walked everything back when he realized it’s not just his supporters who could be in trouble.
