Washington Post: Two Republican governors say they support impeachment inquiry of Trump

For the first time, two Republican governors have publicly supported the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, a new development in an intensifying political fracas that has so far been largely partisan.

Vermont Gov. Phil Scott and Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, both outspoken critics of Trump, said Thursday that they favored the investigation, but Scott added that he would wait for more information before calling for further action against the president.

In a statement to The Washington Post, Scott called the inquiry "appropriate" and said it is a key part of Congress's duty as a co-equal branch of government.

Update: Jeff Flake says 'at least 35' Republican senators would privately vote to impeach Trump (FOX News)

WNU Editor: Both Vermont Gov. Phil Scott and Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker are known outspoken critics of President Trump. No surprises on their support for this impeachment inquiry. There are also two Republican senators .... Senators Romney and Sasse, who have voiced their concerns on the conduct of the Trump administration. As for former Senator Jeff Flake's claim that 35 senators will vote to impeach President Trump meaning that President Trump will be convicted and forcibly removed from office .... we shall see.

Time maybe for Trump to do a deal. Get out and avoid forcible eviction and maybe even charges. If/when either happens it will be interesting to see if his people jump ship or hang in for Mikey.

Yes Fred. "Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely" and Trump was pretty much corrupt before he got the Top job.

I can see Trump taking the hit. What I can't see is the next elected president, either party, cleaning up subversive stuff like "a sitting president cannot be indited".

Both of the are Northeast corridor Republicans governors. What they say does not carry much weight. This is more about them looking to the next election than what they think the truth is.
