For those of you at home, Democrats would need to have just four Republicans join them to vote for impeachment.

In the Senate you would need 19 Republicans to join the Democrats/Independents to remove Trump from office. Honestly I don't think that's out of the realm of possibilities considering there is a literal trial and witnesses can be called to testify about all of the illegal things Trump is doing.

EDIT: BTW this lady is a flipping Senator. Your job is to be a voice for your constituents. Not saying "I'm afraid of retaliation so I'm just going to sit by quietly and let the people who elected me take the brunt of the GOP/MAGA administration's illegal actions."
