Dear @timkaine. This is an awful idea. Even if the senate refuses to convict, we NEED a public trial and to put witnesses under oath. We need answers and sunlight. What we don’t need? A bipartisan slap on Trump’s wrist so that Congress can sweep these crimes under the rug.

Censure wld be “in lieu” of a trial. This is an awful idea. We need a public trial w/ witnesses under oath, regardless of whether senators convict. We need transparency, not a slap on Trump’s wrist so Congress can shove these GOP crimes under the rug w/ all the other dead bodies.

Apparently the envisioned censure wld prevent Trump from holding federal office again. I still say no. It would not ban Ivanka & Don Jr. from holding federal office. We need transparency and witnesses under oath to expose the full extent of the rot, regardless of a conviction.
