I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA WHICH GOP SENATORS WOULD BE HAPPY TO HANG SEPARATELY: Republicans Lack The Votes To Call Trump Impeachment Trial Witnesses: “That proceeding, however, is also full of unknowns. At a meeting with senior White House officials and senators in the Roosevelt Room of the White House almost three weeks ago, Senator Ted Cruz, Republican of Texas, made clear that there are not enough Senate votes to approve some of the edgier witnesses that Democrats and Republicans want to call. While he mentioned no names, it was interpreted by those in the room to refer to people like Hunter Biden, the son of the former vice president, whom Mr. Trump pushed Ukraine to investigate.”
