If the NPR story about Trump's response to CV is shown to be true, he needs to be impeached

and tried for crimes against humanity! And not just a slap on the wrist. This would be MUCH worse than any of the other crimes that he's committed against America.

I'm referring to the story that he held back the government response because it might hurt his chances of reelection. NPR is usually a pretty reliable source, so I assume they checked things out.

I don't see 7 of them crossing the aisle, even now.

The number has to come down to 70 members for 47 to score a conviction.

So 30 is your magic number.
