  • Growing number of GOP senators oppose impeachment trial

    Jan 25, 2021

    WASHINGTON - A growing number of Republican senators say they oppose holding an impeachment trial, a sign of the dimming chances that former President Donald Trump will be convicted on the charge that he incited a siege of the U.S. Capitol.

The intervening months have been less kind. He became a point man for Trump’s effort to overturn the election results, even as the MAGA movement took a vio...
