Impeachment Trial May Hinge on Lamar Alexander

“If you want to know how President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial could play out, keep your eye on Lamar Alexander,” Politico reports.

“On the most important question of the trial — whether or not to subpoena witnesses — the 79-year-old Tennessee Republican is a wild-card. Privately, senior Senate Republicans expect the vote to seek witness testimony to fail, but they are watching Alexander and several other Republicans closely. And wherever Alexander comes down is almost sure to be the majority position in the Senate.”
