RoJo says he's 'sympathetic' to Trump's Ukraine ploy

Why WI GOP Senator and man who can't keep his mouth shut

Ron Johnson, knowing he'll be a juror in a Trump impeachment trial - - and perhaps a witness, too - - continues to go on Sunday news shows and tout his core ignorance and biases for Trump is beyond me. 

Sen. Ron Johnson says he's 'sympathetic' to Trump rationale for freezing Ukraine aid
Doesn't Johnson remember the blowback he got after making a fool out of himself on another Sunday show a couple of weeks ago? 

How did The Washington Post define Johnson's situation

Sen. Johnson, ally of Trump and Ukraine, surfaces in crucial episodes in the saga
...testimony from two blockbuster witnesses in the impeachment probe places Johnson at episodes that will be critical in assessing whether Trump was withholding nearly $400 million in congressionally appropriated military aid to Ukraine in exchange for political favors....
Johnson’s knowledge of key events could make him a person of interest to House impeachment investigators, as well as complicate his role as a juror in a trial by the Senate, if one occurs....
Experts said that even the appearance of a conflict of interest would be problematic for a senator during an impeachment trial but declined to comment specifically on Johnson’s case.

The media should be blasted every single day that they fail to demand a complete accounting of the emergency Fourth of July trip to Russia by that gaggle of Republican Senators. It was clearly a command performance and the American people need to know what happened and why. But cowardly media is not in short supply. Unfortunately.

Dont just pass off Russian Ronnie as dumb. He's also CROOKED, and owes his 2016 re-election to NRA/Russia money-laundering and propaganda.
