The chances of President Trump receiving a bipartisan acquittal took a hit Wednesday after Sen. Doug Jones announced his decision to convict on both articles of impeachment.Growing up in Alabama I learned right from wrong.
What the President did was more than wrong. Someone has to stand up & say so. I will fulfill my oath & vote in favor of both articles of impeachment. https://t.co/X5botsMujsJones was considered one of the more likely Democrats to vote to acquit Trump on one or both charges, primarily because he finds himself in a vulnerable position — some say he's in fact the singular most vulnerable Democratic senator — in his home state of Alabama where he faces re-election in November.
Although Trump will certainly be acquitted Wednesday afternoon, the White House is still hoping at least a couple of Democrats join their Republican counterparts since that would strengthen their argument the case for impeachment was flawed from the get-go. Now, that's becoming increasingly unlikely — as is the chance any Republican votes to convict. Sens. Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema remain the only Democrats who could potentially switch sides at this point.
