On Wednesday, anti-Trump RINO Senator Mitt Romney announced that he will vote to convict President Donald Trump on abuse of power and obstruction of congress.

“There’s no question that the president asked a foreign power to investigate his political foe,” Romney said on Wednesday. “That he did so for a political purpose, and that he pressured Ukraine to get them to do help or to lead in this effort. My own view is there there’s not much I can think of that would be a more egregious assault on our Constitution than trying to corrupt an election to maintain power. And that’s what the president did."

“I swore an oath before God to exercise impartial justice. I am profoundly religious. My faith is at the heart of who I am,” Romney later said, adding that Trump was "guilty of an appalling abuse of public trust."

Although Romney hopes his hatred for President Trump will lead to the President's removal, his dreams are extremely unlikely.

On Tuesday, Republican Senators Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins announced that they will vote in favor of acquitting President Donald Trump in the Senate impeachment trial.

Murkowski first announced that she “cannot vote to convict. The Constitution provides for impeachment but does not demand it in all instances.”

She went on to explain that removing the President is “the political death penalty,” and that the American people should decide on whether or not he stays in office.

“The voters will pronounce a verdict in nine months, and we must trust their judgement,” she said.

Murkowski was clearly unconvinced of the Democrats' case against President Trump and blamed them for their recklessness with the impeachment process.

“The House failed in its responsibilities and the Senate — the Senate should be ashamed by the rank partisanship that has been on display here,” Murkowski said during her speech. “So many in this chamber share my sadness for the present state of our institutions. It’s my hope that we’ve finally found bottom here.”

“During her speech, Murkowski condemned the House for what she said was a rush through the impeachment process, while also criticizing her Senate colleagues on both sides of the aisle for failing to approach the impeachment trial with an open mind,” according to Politico. “She lambasted the media for what she called ‘careless coverage’ when Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not immediately send the articles of impeachment over to the Senate after they passed in the House.”

She also targeted the media by saying they, “cheerfully tried to put out the fires with gasoline,” and torched her colleagues for their “apparent willingness…to destroy not just each other, but all of the institutions of our government. And for what? Because it may help win an election?”

Later on during the day on Tuesday, another Republican swing voter, Senator Susan Collins announced that she would also be voting to acquit President Trump.

"I do not believe the House has met its burden of showing that the president's conduct, however, flawed, warrants the extreme step of immediate removal from office,” Collins said while referring to the House's abuse of power charge.

She also said that the House chose "speed over finality" in pursuing its evidence.

Collins is up for re-election this fall in a state that’s increasingly tilted Democrat and was in a no-win position. Though her decision to acquit will infuriate the state’s liberals, voting to convict would have provoked a sizable backlash from the state’s conservatives.

Collins also voted to acquit former President Bill Clinton in 1999 on two articles of impeachment.
