Democrats could have found their Republican pigeons in the form of Sens. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney.

The Democrats need a 51-vote majority to get witnesses in the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump, but they do not have the numbers to get it unless they have the support of four Republicans.

And Republicans do not do as good of a job at sticking together as the Democrats do, particularly when it comes to RINOS like Sens. Collins, Murkowski and Romney.

The three of them have all indicated that they would be open to the idea of having witnesses at the impeachment trial, which would extend the sham impeachment longer than it has to be.

“I can’t predict to whether we’ll have witnesses or not,” New York Sen. Charles Schumer said on Tuesday.

“At first everyone said no, McConnell seemed to rule the roost. Now we’re having some people entertain it, but you don’t know what’s going to happen. So we’re in better shape than we were a few weeks ago, but there’s no certainties here at all,” he said.

Having witnesses serves the Democrats goal. They know the president is not going to be convicted by the Senate, but they want the trial to continue as long as possible to damage him for the 2020 election.

The Democrats are interested in witnesses like former Ambassador John Bolton and former associate of Rudy Giuliani, Lev Parnas.

“Am I curious about what Ambassador Bolton would have to say? Yes, I am,” Sen. Murkowski of Alaska said.

She has been a thorn in the side of the president from day one and continues to side with Democrats on key issues.

“I tend to like information,” Sen. Collins of Maine said on Monday. She said she would not push for calling witnesses “if I did not anticipate at the end of hearing the case presented, and the Q. and A., that there might be a need for more information.”

“Deciding whether or not a sitting president should be removed from office is perhaps the most solemn matter that can ever come before the United States Senate. I enter this task with an open mind and a recognition of my solemn responsibility to fulfill my oath,” Utah Sen. Mitt Romney said.

“These allegations demand that the Senate put political biases aside, and make good faith efforts to listen to arguments from both sides and thoroughly review facts and evidence,” he said.

Romney said he would be open to witnesses being in the trial but not before opening arguments are made.

“If attempts are made to vote on witnesses prior to opening arguments, I would oppose those efforts,” he said.

He does see that the impeachment process has been partisan and divisive for the nation.

“There is inevitable political pressure from all sides. I have spent — and will continue to spend — many hours in careful deliberation about what this process and its potential outcomes could mean for our country. The best we in the Senate can do is strive to meet the obligations outlined by our founding fathers,” he said.

Getting the four votes to have witnesses is not a simple task for Democrats, but if they do get them it will drag the impeachment trial on longer than it needs to be.
