Fox News analyst Ed Rollins described Maine Senator Susan Collins as a 'dead woman walking' after she voted to hear from witnesses in President Donald Trump's impeachment trial Friday. Collins 'probably signed her death warrant today,' Rollins said.
During an interview with Fox Business host Lou Dobbs on Friday, Fox News political analyst and Republican Party adviser Ed Rollins called Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins a"dead woman walking" after her vote to hear new witness testimony during the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump.
Collins, along with Utah Republican Senator Mitt Romney, aligned their votes with House Democrats in a failed effort to get the vote for witnesses and new documents approved. That motion wasRollins said Trump was in a"fabulous place" because of the practically unanimous support he is currently enjoying from the Republican party.
"With the exception of Romney and Collins, who probably signed her death warrant today," Rollins said,"this party is united behind this president and basically backed him 100 percent in the house, 99 percent in the Senate." Because of her vote Rollins said,"Collins is a dead woman walking. She's not going to get any Democrats to vote for her because she's a Republican. They're not going to vote for her."
Sen. Susan Collins arrives to the U.S. Capitol for the Senate impeachment trial on January 28, 2020 in Washington, DC."I worked with colleagues to ensure the schedule for the trial included a guaranteed up-or-down vote on whether or not to call witnesses," Collins wrote."I believe hearing from certain witnesses would give each side the opportunity to more fully and fairly make their case, resolve any ambiguities, and provide additional clarity.
