'Lamar Alexander is a coward' and other response to Tennessee senator's impeachment decision

Sen. Lamar Alexander's decision to not vote to call witnesses in President Donald Trump's impeachment proceedings did not go over well with the rabble on social media.

The retiring Tennessee senator shared his view on Thursday night that Democrats had proven their case, but Alexander said the president's punishment for that transgression should be determined by voters and not the U.S.Senate.

Alexander's Republican colleagues supported his decision.

SEN. LAMAR ALEXANDER: Senate can't remove president 'simply for actions that are inappropriate'

But many other observers were not as kind.
