Senate GOP has one job right now: Make clear that impeachment is dead on arrival

Democrats control the House and have no interest in passing any serious legislation. As a result, the power of Republicans in the Senate is limited to basically two major things on the domestic front: confirm federal judges and serve as a dead end to anything stupid that comes from the House.

“Anything stupid” should include attempts to impeach President Trump over a phone call to a foreign leader about a legitimate corruption concern. But as is so often the case, some Senate Republicans are already shaking at the knees because Democrats and liberals in the media are giving them a dirty look.
