GOP Senators Who Voted To Convict Face Home State Backlash | Morning Joe | MSNBC

They should wear those censures like a badge of honor !

[petraroch]

I am a Louisiana voter who sent a congratulatory email to Senator Cassidy and promised my support when he faces reelection.

[rubenbunyi]

your names will be remembered as a true patriot. The ones who came true to their oath and love for the republic.

[KarimVite]

"We did not send him there to do the right thing". There you go. Disgusting.

[joeymartin]

Thankfully my Senator Pat Toomey did Pennsylvania proud!!! 😃

[ChrisAlbertH]

_"We didn't send him there to vote his conscience.. or do the right thing"_ - That should tell you all you need to know about these people. When you have constituents like that, you'd have to wonder if being a representative is worth it.

[bizzmoneyb]

“we did not send him there to do the right thing.” that is one of the most disgusting things i’ve ever heard a politician say. wow.

[itwasagoodideaatthetime]

They should be held up on honour by their States not centured!

[kerripearson]

I believe these Senators are the ones with integrity, censure is like a badge of honor!

[eleni]

Loved what the PA GOP county chairman who stated: "We didn't send him [Toomey] there to vote his conscience or to do the right thing ..." WOW!! That said it ALL.

[KITLEVEY]

Money Talks - and when it does, the truth often remains silent.
These people voting to convict spoke the truth for themselves, their colleagues, their family, their real friends, and all of us with minds that reason things out.
I'd like to shake their hands, pat them on the back, and tell them again and again how much I appreciate having them represent honesty and the truth on our behalf.

[viakhnine]

If the trial was unconstitutional, so was the "acquittal" - trump impeached forever.

[Ganiscol]

The GQP at work. They cant help themselves but expedite their political demise. We should help them with that.

[carolynabel]

When a party censures for doing the right thing for the country, that party should check its moral compass.

[annecollins]

They're putting country over party and not over one person who thinks he runs the party.

[sadtothebone]

Kind of sounds like the communist party--party first.

[dl]

Senator Burr, I wish you were the Senator for Texas instead of this stinkin Cruz we have. I take your ethical stand over this coward that we have in Texas.
You are doing right thing. A courage is what's needed to lead.

[painkiller]

The republican party has officially gone insane for one man. There's no denying it anymore. That republican official wasn't even shy that he and his fellow republicans did not want their senator to do the right thing, just the thing that's beneficial for trump.

[alaine]

Quite crazy people with no identity of their own

[GPLP]

The republican party is forever dead to me.
